16-inch MacBook Pro M4 Max review: The pinnacle of the portable Mac
Now the big decision- the M4 Max MBP now or the M4 Studio Max later. I assume the equivalent Studio will be cheaper since you don't need an internal battery, a display or a keyboard. That said, this is an incredible laptop!

Early Geekbench scores show M4 Pro may outpace Mac Pro with M2 Ultra
I've been holding out until I could buy a machine that met or exceeded my current eGPU Metal score of 197,420. It appears from the "leaked benchmarks" that the new M4 Max MBP can do just that, or comes very close (195,781 is the highest I see.) So the dilemma I face is to buy the M4 Max MBP now, or wait for the M4 Max Studio sometime in the next 8 months or so.

M4 Pro Mac mini vs M1 Max Mac Studio compared: Smaller and better
It seems quite silly that Apple hasn't updated the Studio since the M2 came out. At the very least, they should have released an M4 Max Studio along with the MBPs yesterday. If I want an M4 Max now, I have to buy a MBP. Or wait some indeterminate amount of time to get the M4 Max Studio. Perhaps a M4 Mac Mini Pro is really good enough.

Apple takes a three-day week for its Mac launches
What I think I want is an M4 Max. Since Apple has chosen not to release the M4 Max Studio before the M4 Ultra Studio is ready, the only choice is to buy a MBP, which I neither need nor want. This is for exclusive desktop use. I'd hate to pay for a display that I'll never use. But I DO like the 40 GPU cores on the Max.

Amazon leaks redesigned Mac mini with M4 Pro

Yeah, anybody buying a Studio now needs to have their head examined. I just don't understand why Apple does what they do... Yes, I know an M4 Studio is coming, but I thought an M3 Studio was also coming, and never did...
