Thank you for this. I had a similar experience with an earlier M-processor machine, where the Tame Apple Press were reporting it was clearly a million times faster than any x86 machine etc etc, I got one for a very specific purpose, and ...

It was slow. Not just "not a million times faster than an equivalent x86", but actually noticeably slower than an x86 machine that cost half as much (and came with four times as much storage, but that's another Apple gripe).

The mainstream American #press definitely gives #Apple a whole lot more credit than they give most companies' wild #claims - it's noticeable enough that The Register calls them the Tame Apple Press. The Wall Street Journal is particularly obnoxious in its obsequiousness.

Perhaps some of that "Apple #Exceptionalism" constantly promoted in the press leaks into other walks of life, including the justice system?
