I’m getting a bit frustrated. I was going to replace my ageing mid-2010 i7 iMac with a more recent Intel iMac when Apple Silicon was announced, so I held off. The M1 iMac eventually appeared, but not in a 27” version, so I waited some more for a 27” M1 iMac, only to find that the 27” Intel iMac was discontinued and no sign at all of a possible 27” M1 replacement. The Mac Studio then came out - only for the M2 processor to be announced hot on its heals.

I am now waiting for December to see what is released then, nothing of interest for me having been released in June (that was a long shot anyway). The thought of acquiring an M1 Max only to find not too far down the track that the M1 series might not be supported by MacOS major versions has also put me off springing for an M1 Studio given the price.

After December this year, it looks like waiting till March 2023, December 2023, March 2024…, before I eventually decide. Fingers crossed that my 2010 iMac doesn’t expire in the interim. Reports of Apple’s ‘roadmap’ are doing my head in. And no, I really am not acquiring a 24” M1 iMac.

This article assumes that “AudioAccessory6” is in fact a HomePod and not yet another AirPod. It will be interesting to see if said device ever surfaces, but I’m not going to be holding my breath.

+1 to Afib, and I would have thought that ‘Safety Check’ was similarly a very important addition. 

And no sign of the Apple Silicon MacPro (as far as I can tell)…

Update 15.5.1 seems to have made it worse for me and my HomePod mini. Stream now stops after about a minute!

15.5.1 isn’t available here in Australia yet - maybe thatks why 😬
