The cheapest Apple with an M3 Pro is https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/14-inch-space... which is $1999 (with 18 GB RAM and 512 GB SSD). Full pricing on Lunar Lake is not available yet, but for ex

Possibly Battlemage running at 100% will use more power than M3's GPU running at 100%...it will take some detailed testing to track that+ Lunar Lake can be set at different TDP's (plus performance settings, on battery vs connected

Intel Arc runs FP16 at 2:1 compared to FP32, and Battlemage on Lunar Lake is the same, and XMX FP16 is actually at 8:1. I don't think M3's GPU has a better ratio. Of course there are many other aspects, but given it's Intel&#

Gaming is essentially all done with FP32...so it's by far the best figure of merit (excluding issues with say RDNA3 dual issue which is rarely achieved in practice). You will see gaming benchmarks come out soon, and Lunar Lake will be

You can start here... https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/cpu_benchmark-bench_11 M3 is around 3.5 TeraFLOPS, Lunar Lake is 5.2-6.5 TeraFLOPS. I'm sure more detailed benchmarks will be coming up soon, but realistically,

Snarky and incorrect. This should compare very favorably (performance and efficiency) with Apple's M3 chip. Slightly worse CPU ( https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/compare/7483669?baselin... ), much be

Zepbound is $399-$650 per month, ordered direct, if insurance does not cover it. Not great, but at least a start..... https://www.help.senate.gov/chair/newsroom/press/news-sander...

Arguably, TSMC being Apple's preferred fabricator is why it has a current market cap 10x larger than Intel. Apple probably ends up getting chips only slightly above cost from TSMC. (It pays $18 B a year, which is pretty low for the CPU

I'm not sure I understand your point. Yes, likely if NeXT had been doing better financially Apple couldn't have afforded it. You can check NeXT's aborted S-1 here.[1] They had an accumulated deficit of $273 million as of a fe

NeXt was not doing well financially, and neither was Pixar until Toy Story came out. He also did not run Pixar in any meaningful way.

That's the point. They have more employees than the #1 silicon fabricator, the number #1 GPU designer, and the #2 CPU and GPU designer, COMBINED.

You need an integer number of votes, so you would expect it cannot be equal to an exact fraction. But being within a single vote bound is incredibly suspicious.
