They're certainly not for pro video or photography, where a coloured frame is the last thing you want. Which suggests they're aimed deliberately at the school, home, and hipster office markets. 1. A silver colored M1 iMac is part of the lineup, which is a neutral color. 2. A Mac with a 4.5K Retina display, Wide color P3, True Tone and support for their 6K pro display clearly isn't exclusively targeted at school, home and hipster office markets. 3. Apple will announce build-to-order configurations where you can get 16 GB of RAM as we get closer to April 30. So does this mean the M1X is delayed? How can something that's unannounced be delayed? Apple hasn't announced a timeline for future M-series processors. WWDC in June is the next logical time such an announcement could be made. Having said that, an M1X processor would make sense for the Apple Silicon versions of the iMac Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro.
