Yeah the supply is low but I mean it's the current generation of chip that was released a few months before M1. It seems reasonable to compare the current gen vs the current gen instead of the current gen (M1) vs the previous gen (AMD 3000 series).
Hopefully the demand slows down in the next few months. I'm thinking about upgrading my workstation and I'm going AMD this time around (I've used Intel CPUs since the Pentium II era).
