While I appreciate the devotion to theming, this is such a bootlicking comment. You do realize that the people that made the show have already been paid, yes?

If anything, Broadcom has been hugely successful at eroding any iota of trust that anyone involved in the tech space may have had for them. It's obvious that the corporate types at HQ think that "a large amount of virtualization runs off of our newly purchased platform" means that they can behave like Adobe. They are failing to realize that - unlike Adobe - they haven't monopolized the market that they are trying to suck dry. Hopefully VMware dies quickly, it doesn't deserve to suffer.
Who let the apple marketing people in here?
As someone running a pihole off an old radio 2B, your MacBook will be more than sufficient to run what is needed. My only advice would be to get an Ethernet adapter if that model doesn't have one. Losing valid dns queries due to wifi packet loss would be annoying. Beyond that, just google a guide and go, it's super straightforward to set up and manage.
