FINALLY. Ughhhh, I've been suffering through the Touch Bar and butterfly keyboard for what feels like forever. I went ALL-IN for once. Thank you for the ports, thank you for MagSafe, thanks for the improved keyboard, Touch ID, Webcam upgrade, processor and GPU/RAM updates. Now SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY 🥳

[edit] $6,315.84 all-in fully maxed out specs with AppleCare+, tax and a military discount. More than I spent on my first 3 cars... 🤣

Gets fairly expensive as you go up on the processors, memory. Something for everyone.

The standard configurations for both 14" and 16" should be very popular.

Although a maxed out 16" is $6100, still less expensive than a maxed out 2019 16" and you're getting a much much better computer. The new Pros are expensive, but when have people ever not complained about Apple and pricing?
 
You know.. this was the perfect way for Apple to upsell you on RAM. They couldn’t get you to do it before, but now they are touting 64GB Graphics Memory! OMG! So, of course, like an idiot I clicked 64 GB RAM. Well done, Apple. Well done.
 
Ordered base CPU on 14”, but upped memory to 32GB and storage to 1TB. Storage was a big pain point for me on my last MB (MBA, not MBP) And I figure more memory will help improve performance and longevity of the base CPU. Arrives Nov 3-5.

EDIT: I was beholden to always getting MBs in Silver— but that black keyboard tray made me go Space Gray, in hopes that the tray blends in more.

16 inch Pro Max with 32G and 2TB.

Site was slow, and it's now coming first week in November. I was dinking around with options for a while and all the sudden the site was verrrrrrry sloooooowwwww and the delivery date slipped.
 
Finally got my base 14" order in with the edu discount and trade in. Arriving next Tuesday still. Wish it was like the old days where they were released and waiting in stores day of announcement.
 
Is that really the shape of the power brick? (140W power adapter)

I wish the AirPods 3 didn't come out the same time as the Watch Series 7. I'll have to wait till next month to order them. Hopefully they aren't on back order by then.
