Apple: amazing --

  • M2 Max processor
  • a 12-core CPU
  • a 30-core GPU
  • 16 cores for machine intelligence tasks
  • 32 GB memory
  • multiple media-rendering engines
  • starts at $2,000
  • for a $1,400 upgrade --> M2 Ultra -- Apple's "best" chip
  • but look at this: this "studio" will support more monitors at any one time than anyone will ever own at any one time -- I have not less than six Apple monitors in my apartment right now -- I don't need any more monitors, but CPUs? --> that's a different story.

Apple: spatial computing. We've discussed this before. Regular readers will know why I posted this. AS for me, I learned a few more "buzz words."
