I don’t see how this is even a rumor. It’s certainly not a news story. Of course they are testing the M3 across product lines.  Want to hear another rumor? I heard that in January 2025 they might come out with an M4.  AND it’s RUMORED to be in the MacBook Pro.  🤡

There is no way that Apple is going to raise prices 20%. That is insane.  I also don’t really even see how this is news. Of course the phone is going to be more expensive.  It would be news if they kept the same.

They just updated the MBP to M2 in January.  I find it extremely unlikely they will go M3 in the fall.  I just bought a 16 inch MBP M2 Max 32GB 2TB 12/30 core.  I know I won’t be worried even if they do.

So Twitter was the preeminent microblogging platform, doing well enough to have shareholders getting earnings.
Musk buys it and starts pulling every lever he can find, many of which were clearly marked DO NOT TOUCH THIS LEVER.
Now the company is bleeding value, invisible to the public, and got its lunch eaten by Meta in less than a week of competition. 
Oh, and a new half-billion liability based on Lever #2.

Remind me how this reflects on the legendary genius of Musk?

Twitter was an absolute disaster and a fraud. That’s why he almost canceled the deal. It was a bloated company that was all smoke and mirrors. It’s going to take a while for even him to turn it around.

I think Apple quite simply painted themselves into a corner on the Mac Pro. When they started the transition, they had no issue with MacBooks, the iMac, etc.  But the Mac Pro was something I think they knew would be an issue, but had 2-3 years to figure out.  I suspect the Mac Studio was the result of not having solved the problem in time…that being the entire concept of the Mac Pro wasn’t congruent with the integrated architecture they had produced. Frankly, I think Apple looked at the problem and size of the true pro market, then designed this because they promised they would.
