Honestly, I think this jump in performance is one of the biggest along with the jump from single core to dual core (and multi-core) CPUs back in the past decade. I think this sets a new baseline and load times are already a thing of the past.
Also, Apple don't want the current $5000 iMac Pro customers switching to $1000 MacBook Airs because it's quicker! More powerful kit must be around the corner for their sake.
If I try this on my mbp 2014, it will make toast.Now it just needs to make toast.
I was thinking the same thing. The last time I saw gains like this was with Intel Core 2 and Athlon X2. If we are talking within a single lineup I'd include the first Zen chips.Honestly, I think this jump in performance is one of the biggest along with the jump from single core to dual core (and multi-core) CPUs back in the past decade.

be sure that you dont need more than 2 ports or more than 1 external monitorNow im seriously considering selling my 16 in for the 13 in M1
Right now ! use two ports only for one external monitor and the other one to charge the MacBook. I don't really use Linux or Windows. I mainly need it for school, web browsing, email, edit light videos and photos.be sure that you dont need more than 2 ports or more than 1 external monitor
Holy! 20 macs! I think I had maybe 3 as I made them last - thank you Mac Pro 5.1View attachment 1671082
This is how I feel watching that after owning something like 20 Macs in 25 years.
Apple is genius.So that means the Intel Macs twice the price we’ve been using are now obsolete...
As a developer, I can tell you that the 16GB in these new machines will far out perform 32GB in anything you've used previously. I certainly recommend learning about ARM and the differences between your standard CPU like the Intel chips we've been using. RAM in these cases is not directly 1:1 comparable.This is literally why I'm so disappointed Apple didn't at least give the new Mini a 32GB RAM option. As a developer I'm just not getting on board until it's there because my workflow will just kill the machine.
