Enjoy it as long as you can. As soon as this kind of hardware is close to becoming commodity, software will get as slow as it is currently on commodity hardware.

Interesting. So that's why latency seems to have become worse in all aspects of personal computing / smartphones.

Time from "push button" to "something happens on screen", was faster 20 years ago in some aspects.

Has turned a bit on my M2 Air it seems though.
