Great! Can't wait for Apple to get these. 36gb in a Macbook Air or MBPs with up to 144gb of memory will be fun.

I’m a fan of that form factor and software stack too

Getting over 128gb of usable memory changes use cases for me, like running nodes on networks I wouldn’t have bothered with

Yes, but Apple will use only 8GB (not gb) .

Has Apple ever released a product using HBM (outside of some FirePro GPUs in some Mac Pros)? M1/2 Pro/Max use LPDDR5.

Though apparently Apple applied for a patent for a hybrid DDR/HBM system, so maybe in M3/4/5? https://patents.google.com/patent/US10573368B2/
