But the rumor mill is very dry on this front. New large-display iMacs with pro-level performance? I’d love to see it. Very interested to see which, if any, third-party developers got advanced access and get demo time during the show. The hitch: apps will need to embrace Metal APIs to take advantage of them. What I think might prove shocking is the GPU performance of these chips.

We know from the late great iMac Pro that Apple can engineer incredible cooling systems that run nearly silently. Let these chips actually get warm - hence my guess that these MacBook Pros might be slightly thicker than the Intel-based models they’re replacing. But I think a big part of the story will be sustained performance, not just peak performance. We know they’re going to be fast, and we know that adding more high-performance cores will be game-changing for many pro workflows. People need to feel keys - your eyes are on the display, not the keyboard.ĬPU performance we can kind of extrapolate from the state-of-the-art A15 chips and from the existing M1’s. I just can’t shake the feeling that the Touch Bar was a wonderful idea but the first crack at it wasn’t good enough. F-keys would be easier though, and would satisfy the Touch Bar haters. Touch Bar? I hope they replace it with something new, Touch Bar 2, not just a return to dumb F-keys.

We need to do something for the next 90 minutes, might as well speculate. I started a thread on Twitter with most of the following guesses - feel free to chime in with your guesses and wishes there. I could well be wrong about most of these.
