I know everyone else is saying it as well but the lead time to get a high-specced MBP is insane. So much so that my company had to give new hires a base model M1 Pro because that was one of the only things they could get their hands on. Base MBP with M1 Pro, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD: $2,499.00 Minimum desired MBP with M1 Pro, upgraded GPU so you can get more RAM, 64GB RAM, 1TB SSD: $3,699.00 And that's just assuming we wouldn't have considered M1 Max chips. We are a smaller company but have had had to buy at least 2 "compromise" laptops that I know of due to lead time. I imagine larger companies are in a similar position so Apple is losing $1-2K per laptop just because we can't buy the one we want in a reasonable timeframe.
