Feels like this is most aggressive discounting I’ve ever seen in MacBook history. Sad to see that this is how much we as consumers get hosed as well.

same sale ($1000 off) as two weeks ago. but now, I can finally get silver and swap the black since they would not let me change my order two weeks ago. their loss. should have let me do it during the last sale, now they get a used space black. their customer service is backwards.

M3 Max with 48GB RAM at $2999 is a steal. It will be significantly faster overall than any non-Max M4 variant, especially at that price point.

Discounts on M3 came early. I guess most people on Intels swapped immediately when M1 came, and more with M2. The ones left on Intel, like me, don’t *need* to upgrade. And we as a group still don’t.

They are challenging their own M1 systems, which is not easy to do unless their customers workflow is very demanding. I guess most people don’t see the improvement worth it.
