    Does any one care?

    There was so much hype on this generation of silicon and the landing has seemed extremely flat to me, largely because Apple.

      I like keeping tabs on it, as they’re really the only ones pushing mainstream high end ARM chips at the moment.

        Don’t forget about the new Snapdragon X series. I heard they were pretty good, on par and better than M3s.

          Hoping they have success, but to say that their laptop chips are truly mainstream, at least in the same sense that Apple gives, is a bit generous I feel.

          Obviously the X series has a decent shot at changing that, which I really hope it does.

        Everything since the M1. Mind blowing hype, graphs that seem shocking at announcement. Data that comes in below these graphs, then owing to the extremely high walls of the garden, a sigh and shoulder shrug at what you can do with the technology, because although cool and seemingly very powerful, you just can’t do much with it because of apples buisness philosophy.
