I'll be buying the Max this year, upgrading from an M1 Pro. The Max actually started making sense, because there are more performance cores and memory bandwidth is bigger. I don't much care about GPU: I wish Fusion 360 ran faster, but Autodesk doesn't seem to care much about Mac performance. What I do care about is CPU for Clojure development work, and for that the new Max actually makes sense. In the M1 generation there was no benefit from going from Pro to the Max.
