Very keen to understand the differences between M2/M1 pro and Max. M1 pro/max are both 8P/2e config (Max was just bigger GPU). Are they going to increase core count or just like normal M2, slight clock speed increase, minimal IPC gain.

Betting on minor incremental gains, but would love to see them keep the heat AMD/Intel by pushing Perf/W even higher.

Hmm... it feels like ARM is going to face some serious headwinds, increasing their penetration of the laptop market, this year. The PC demand slump comes at a tough time, for them.

Sales will be fine, they just have to make sure it's shiny and has an apple logo on it.

That's not what the article says.

However, I wasn't even talking about specifically Apples. Instead, I am thinking about marketshare of ARM ISA-based machines, outside of the cloud. In case you haven't heard, Softbank has put ARM on the path to an IPO. To get a good share price, they'll want to paint a rosy picture for investors about their future prospects. This seems like it'll be quite a challenge. The timing of their IPO was almost as bad as the launch of Intel's dGPUs.
