let's be honest: those airflow holes on the bottom
of the Mac studio is going to be clogged with cat hair and chip crumbs within a week for the typical goon

wasn't the previous guy talking about people wanting modularity and expansion ability?

lol this is as modular as the trashcan pro.

what's the point of modularity when nobody makes mac drivers for anything you might want to plug in?

They've done that once in the past for Mac Pro, but it wasn't at an event, it was like a preview to journalists or something during the great Mac Pro drought between the trash can and the cheese grater.

Store just came back up. The Studio can max out at $8k. The price difference between the regular stand and the height-adjustable stand is $400.

EDIT:
Total price with everything maxed out (display and Mac Studio)...

$10,298.00
or
$858.16/mo. per month for 12 mo.months*

they do not mention the power supply being included in the box, but also looks like a weird connector so what is the deal here?

e: seems to take ac power but just using some weird proprietary power cable?

It looks like they finally added a ground connector, hence the weird three-prong look.

OH IT IS, IS IT? YOU gently caress.

With half of the Mx / CPU design team gone / scarfed up by other companies it might take a while to come up with a leap in design worthy of the name 'M2 Ultra'

unless they just tape together two Ultras and call it a day

ahem, you'll know I graduated university in 3-prong connector sciences so of course I would recognize it if I saw it

where did you see it because none of the renders on the website seem to show a 3-prong design

e: I've looked at their stupid AR thing it just looks like some kind of round connector. looking at the renders in the tech specs page also seems to suggest that. they are also weirdly hiding the AC connector in all their marketing. at least that I can see on my iPhone rn

e2: i am asking about the display
