    I thought they were waiting for Mac OS Tahoe, I guess the new Metal features were not the cause for the delay after all.
    Could’ve been delayed to increase sales for the Switch 2 version.
    I’d guess not. It’s a SteamPlay title, so you can use it on Mac or PC. I’m not saying the Nintendo Switch users don’t play PC games too, but I can’t imagine many lost sales due to the PC port now supporting MacOS.

    Back to school and Christmas 2025 missed oh well….
    More of Christmas + end-of-year - but agree. There is no reason for the 3rd iteration of 3nm to slip.

    Let us rethink the next MBP.

    TSMC is on schedule to deliver 2nm volume production in 2nd half of 2025. Production started in 2024.
    Apple can't really use those chips for the duration of a year unless they go to iPad Pro, Mac Studio + Pro, and MBP.
    Tandem OLED is ready and the macOS 26 menu is designed for it.

    If the next MBP combines 2nm with OLED it wouldn't be late - it would be 10 months early.

    I was asked by a relative who is ready to buy a Mac PowerBook now and I told them do not buy now. Wait until Apple update’s to an M5 processor, what’s the point of buying an M4 MacBook Pro if the M5 version is right around the corner within the next three-six months?
    I’d strongly recommend against the PowerBook line, at 20 years old they really are only for the enthusiasts.

    As long as it has 16GB of Ram and a 256GB SSD I’ll order one the second they get released.

    I guess my trust M1 Pro gets to stick around until 2027 then.
