@paul The M1 Ultra is much faster.
@snazzyq I'm not so sure, Xcode isn't all that great at parallelizing across 20 cores, specially for the very frequent small incremental builds I do.
@paul @snazzyq For many developers, I suspect 96 GB of RAM and M2 Max core count might win out.
@gruber @paul @snazzyq Agreed. Apple really needs to update that Mac Studio with M2s if it wants that product to remain competitive (both models of it).
@EshuMarneedi @paul @snazzyq Last year the Studio arrived 3-4 months after the M1 Pro/Max MBPs. So I expect the M2 Studio and Mac Pro in 3-4 months. Maybe April, otherwise at WWDC in June. Apple is a company of patterns.
@gruber @EshuMarneedi @paul @snazzyq If there's no M2 Extrems aka 2x Ultras, they'll likely save the M2 Ultra specifically for the Mac Pro to make it seem more valuable.
@alimomen @EshuMarneedi @paul @snazzyq Nah. Mac Studio will be like last year’s lineup and Mac Pro will be a new tier above that.
@gruber @EshuMarneedi @paul @snazzyq if both the new Studio and the Pro have the same processor, it will be interesting to see how Apple positions the Pro and what else it will have.
@alimomen @gruber @paul @snazzyq Pro would have interchangeable RAM, PCIe slots, upgradable storage, more, expandable ports, etc. I think that’s worth an extra $1000 over the Ultra Studio.
@EshuMarneedi @gruber @paul @snazzyq Gurman just reported no upgradeable RAM, no upgradeable GPU, just storage. Making my theory that the Studio getting the same processor as the Pro makes no sense.
