Intel enters a new era of chiplets

It would be exciting if you could add more memory to their machines, and maybe gpus, on systems that cost less than 6000 dollars (and even those haven't transitioned to apple's in house cpu architecture).

For now, Apple Silicon is just sorta a blip because most people buy them for coding environments and editing pictures, and apple decides to dedicate all of those performance per watts on having Apple Music boot up as fast as possible on boot.

For me, I get the popcorn out for all the ongoing GPU drama between AMD, Nvidia and now Intel. All of that seems to be the sequel to Pirates of Silicon Valley.

None of your 3 paragraphs make any sense to me.

1st paragraph: SOC are not upgradable, that’s the whole point of the trade of and most of what makes this tradition exciting. What will Apple do with the Mac Pro is the most important question in this industry for the last couple of years.

2nd: what? Apple Music what?

3rd: what does that movie, which was about Apple and Microsoft, had to do with any of the current chip industry and its many players?
