If only my history with Apple laptops were less disappointing. The Titanium was nice and all, but ludicrously expensive as well, had tons of flaws and died prematurely. The 12" PowerBook was super cute, but underpowered and constantly had its fans on. My last MBP was a 2009-ish (?) MBP with underpowered nVidia graphics, which rendered the machine kind of useless far too soon – and it died soon after (fried nVidia chip 🙄)

First hot takes on the new machines throw some shadow on the M3 Pro versus M2 Pro: less P-Cores, less RAM bandwidth. So depending on your workflow there might be little to no improvement over the M2 Pro, which makes refurbished MBPs very attractive again ;). Damn. It’s never easy, is it?
