When the technology is there it will be way bigger than you can imagine, but that’s quite a way off, if you think it’s just apps on your phone, well, just wait friend.

I will go out on a limb and say that AR will happen. Some killer app(s) would of course change the rate at which AR happens, but AR will happen. Period.We shall see if the keynote makes your case or not. I have argued for AR but there needs to be something that stimulates the marketplace and its not going to be just an Apple solution that does it, it has to be broader.
AR will not be vaporware, and Apple's move into the space is prescient.
I'm in Washington State. No huge bug problems here, except my Mac OS.We on the west coast never have any where the size/quantity of bugs that people experience on the east coast you know.
We do have lot of southern California Alligator lizards all over the coast like in Ventura to fairly high elevations that eat tons of bugs instead of those things all over your walls especially when it gets lot more humid. There is also the northern California Alligator lizard species too. see also this article for species/location ranges.
a lot of countries still can't use SWIPE (Slide To Type) on their iOS keyboards and have to install some 3rd party apps like GBoard... In this case Apple is still 10 years behind Samsung and others. Or simply they don't care about other countries ;D
So I would say: SWIPE and SIRI support for other countries should be coming in WWDC ;D

So basically an apple TV but running Mac OS?
Actually with your list of the RAM, CPU, ports and storage you are describing a Mac Mini. It’s not quite pocketable but it is cheaper and has more ports than a MacBook air.
So no Mac Pro - since Apple is struggling with multi-processor architectures.
I won't be surprised if, just to preserve the lineup and margins, they introduce the M3s as Mac Pro only options and then update the Studio to M2 spec. It would be short-sighted instead of actually investing in making the Mac Pro stronger.

You again literally quoted my post and made my own argument back at me trying to say I don’t understand it. 🤦♂️
Apple has diffidently kept this info in their vaults what will be utilize. There are of course suggestive theories that Apple has come up with a way to use plug in cards similar to SoC + unified memory that could allow the configuration to be easily swapped over time. Some rumor related to making their own eGPU board. Another theory originally had this using an extreme SoC equivalent to two Ultra’s. But the rumors suggested that was too expensive to go with from a huge SoC standpoint. Of course it was suggestive to continue offering an Intel Mac Pro alternative also only change the expensive machined tower chassis. At this late stage anything utilizing at minimum a M2 Ultra with a cheaper tower design would be seen as positive. Hopefully something is shown for developers and the industry which wants to see how Apple solves this challenge of their new AS platfom.
I’m really excited and can’t wait! Lots of good things coming.
There are far more uses to this technology than helping oldies find the sour cream at their local grocery store.
Which is literally what I said in the post you quoted. 🤦♂️
Either you are playing dumb, or...
That would be snow on the beach. But if that can happen there is still a chance for the Mac Pro.

May be carrying in backpack isn’t that heavy. But try carrying the laptop in hand with out backup from one meeting to another across the building/s and conference rooms. I personally have no problem with 16 MBP but it can be problem for some.
I know lot of companies are going from remote/hybrid to onsite.
My observation, for what it’s worth. People who want a mobile laptop, who really want something to carry around, tend to opt for a 13-14in. Those who opt for a 15-17in. are often using it mostly as a compact desktop that is rarely moved about. So while current 15-17in. laptops are lighter than their predecessors it doesn’t really matter much given many of them are intended to stay in mostly one place.
Sure some folks may fit that model; not me. I have carried a 17" then 15" now 16" MBP everywhere, always appreciating having both as much screen real estate and power as possible. Not once in that 12 years have I ever wished to trade screen real estate or power for thinner/lighter.
Edit: My guess is that in 2024 we will see thinner/lighter M3 MBPs without giving up screen real estate or power.

You’ve made my point. Most people who want something mobile go for 13-14in. Most.
Meh, the Mac Pro is AirPower at this point. Apple just couldn’t figure out how to differentiate it enough from the Mac Studio.That would be snow on the beach. But if that can happen there is still a chance for the Mac Pro.
