I’ve a tax return waiting for whatever M2 or M1X pro laptop they come out with.

I simply can not wait.

Just assume that M1 doesn't exist. It'll be much easier.

It'll worth the wait. :)

Exactly. It is sooner than you think.

You won't be the M1 early adopters in 2020 that had their software break in front of them this time when getting an M1X or M2 device this year.

Not only it will be a lot faster thanks to it being possibly going down to 4nm, the software ecosystem will be much improved and supported by it from day 0.

You will thank me later.

Do we know if the silicon shortages will affect the M2 or what comes after? I wonder if they booked enough volume with TSMC to get to 4nm or whatever the next process shrink is or if they will be trying to shove M1s into everything.

AFAIK the silicon shortages (of high end nodes) are partly because Apple has all the capacity (which they have because they're swimming in cash and have high margins and thus have been able to outbid everyone else).

Good for us in the Apple ecosystem with money to spend. Bad for everyone else. Hmm.
