Scrobo on Residential Gigabit nbn Plans on FTTP and HFC 1000/50Mbps $149/mth, 250/100Mbps $209/mth, 250/25Mbps $129/mth @ Aussie BroadbandI'd be happy with 1000/100 for the price. But I'm in the same boat, can't justify the extra costs as upload is my biggest pain point.

This is my strategy as well. XPS 15, Windows 10 as the main OS, WSL for any linux based work or dev tools.

You also mentioned 4K video. Going AMD at this point brings the possiblity of PCI Gen 4. And fastest possible NVME storage speeds.

Up to you, I have shucked and unshucked. Unschuked is sometimes a good option, as it's cheaper, you maintain the warranty, and it's often...

Considering 10 Tenders for $10 is currently available in the app currently you definitely got ripped off.
