This is a great example of growth, and why your long term plan is likely going to fizzle. I'll give you all your money back for you M3, and give you the M1 you have/had only at a maxed out spec. Would you take the deal? It sounds good, but progress is a thing. That AI workload you want to run, isnt going to do so hot on the m1 (it doesn't have the right floating point systems). Its likely that the current m3 will remain usable as a laptop for a few more years due to extra ram and storage, but it has a shelf life for high end workloads...

> Its likely that the current m3 will remain usable as a laptop for a few more years due to extra ram and storage, but it has a shelf life for high end workloads... Isn't that my point exactly? (Sorry if I miss explained myself, not a native speaker and I didn't quite proofread my comment either) What I want to say is, I have the feeling my M3 is going to provide good service for probably a longer time than Apple is expecting to, and the only reason that'll make me change is having the need - and the money - for a better option. And I do think one of the biggest reasons as to why I might not make the switch is due to how incredible well this machine is engineered. As I'm kind of Apple's target pop - I did buy, afterall, 2 machines from them in a very short span of time - the previous point I made plays against them. > I'll give you all your money back for you M3, and give you the M1 you have/had only at a maxed out spec. > Would you take the deal? Depends on the deal, but very likely yes. Maxed out M1's are incredible capable machines in my opinion. Thanks for your comment!
