HDMI 2.2 arrives with 16K video and 96Gbps bandwidth support
16K does have potential application in the Pro AV realm to address large direct view LED displays or tiled/blended arrays of smaller displays. Of course, we would need a source capable of delivering a 16K signal, which would feed some sort of processor that also must be capable of accepting 16K to split/distribute the signal to the entire display array. (Right now, media servers capable of multiple 4K outputs exist for these applications, so I would say 16K is not urgent).
Still not a fan of the HDMI connector though.

It's tough, but you can hack a M4 Mac mini to get power over USB-C
Not sure how niche this is, but having number of Mac minis in a rack is not all that uncommon and powering via PoE would be convenient. But yeah, the M-series minis max continuous power spec of 150-155W makes this not an option...appleinsideruser said:
A bit niche and also not really powerful enough https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_over_Ethernet#Standard_implementationjayweiss said:It would be much better to use PoE (Power over Ethernet) to power the Mac mini.
Interestingly, the last generation of Intel minis had a max power of only 80W, so theoretically, it would have been "almost" possible on PoE++.

Mac Studio M4 Max review one month later: Costly computing power, worth every cent
My workflow is nothing like Wiliam's, but I found this article/review exceptionally informative.
PS: I had to LOL on the "that relaxing thing you read about" part. I can definitely relate to that!

ViewSonic's new 5K monitor rivals Apple's Studio Display for half the price
Ah, good! Thanks!Mike Wuerthele said:

At $799, that ASUS ProArt 5K display seems like a pretty good deal. Would definitely like to see AI review one.entropys said:Hopefully two review units so you can find out what is happening when daisy chained.
also if the studio display be included in such a setup.
and the ASUS ProArt 5K display.
On paper, the ViewSonic seems worth the extra $50 unless the KVM feature of the Asus is important. Looking forward to your hands-on review of the ViewSonic! -
