    Saving the quad for the pro eh? 

    M1 Extreme? 

    For the $4,000 STARTING price of the Studio, you’d think it would have a quad. 
    That’s probably for the Mac Pro… the last Mac to transition off Intel.

    As Steve Jobs laid it out in the debut presentation, before Apple App Store developers were beholden to both handset/device makers and the carriers such that they often only got 30% after the two concerns took the revenue/profit cuts they demanded.   And with zero promotional and marketing support
    Developer’s still would have more costs and expenses to pay further reducing their 30% take 

    Plus, You didn’t have these convenient major, Consolidated , curated markets and platforms. Every handset/device maker and Carrier was like its own unique point of negotiated terms...

    When Google acquired Motorola, supposedly, they didn't "really try" to become an actual hardware player and essentially put up a virtual firewall between the companies as not to show special favor to Motorola over any other phone producing Android licensee.  Back then it was all about the Motorola patents Google believed would be useful to fend off Apple and Microsoft lawsuits.   Google partnered up with other companies with the Nexus brand often giving those other companies first access to new Android update features.  

    Now, I suppose it will be different. Google may really be "In it to Win it" this time...

    Microsoft now competes with their OEM Windows licensees' with Surface Hardware so...  it is what it is.   

    everyone really, really wants to be like Apple now.
