Bring on the Mac mini Max...!!!

10-core CPU (8P/2E)
32-core GPU
16-core Neural Engine
64GB RAM
1TB SSD
10Gb Ethernet
$2999

I hope it has more than 8 performance cores. It is 2021, gimmie 32 cores with a 64 core upgrade option.
 
Oh and I forgot something, that I planned to write: I don't think, that they will cancel the 1-year old M1 models of Mac mini, Macbook Air and MacBook Pro 13". Oh, no. They will still sell these models.
There would really be no reason to cancel those three original M1 Apple silicon models, as they are the entry-level / low-end Macs...!
 
not planning to buy a macbook today but who knows. probably won't but...we'll see. i really want to come back to mac and can't decide between a 16" macbook or wait for the larger iMac. probably won't even be able to afford the 16" Macbook right now anyway. "only" have a £2,000 budget so far. might be able to get a 14" but i don't want a tiny screen.

If they call it the Mac Mini Max then Apple's marketing department deserves to be fired. It's bad enough they've added the word Pro on consumer items but this would be even worse.
 
Of course I pick today to check out prices...

I was an Apple user a long time ago, but the shoddy build quality of the Core Duo Macbooks (the first Intel Macs) drove me away.

Depending on what happens later today, I may come back to the Apple fold.

I have a 16" MBP; 2.3 i9/64GB/2TB/5500 .... and a 2014 Retina iMac. Was going to buy one of the last intel imacs (why I'm waiting for the new big imac to be announced to hopefully drop price of older stock)

Tempted to see what these 14" MBPs are like, even a new Air, and move my 16" to replace my iMac (I have a couple of 4K screens anyway)
 
I mean, that’s great, but I have an order I am expecting today from Apple by scheduled courier. They use Uber for this. I’d like to be able to track it given it requires a signature.
I can’t even get into the store to check order status…all the tracking for these types of orders is done through the Apple Store.

Awful! However my experience was they texted me as well, so look out for that!

Would love to know how much money Apple loses running a web shop on software from the 1990s. Never seen ANY other company's web shop go down. And yes, someone like Alibaba or Amazon sells a lot more items to a lot more customers than Apple. So size ain't it.
