They just couldn't do it in a, in a feasible way.
And they, so far they haven't been able to.
Fingers crossed that the M5 Ultra is, if it's not, if it's still two M5 Maxes stuck together, that'll still be the most powerful chip that Apple makes, and it'll still be really good, and we'll check the benchmarks and see, is the scaling better than it was, even if it's still not linear?
But, you know, I need something to hope for, so I'm here, I'm out here hoping that the M5 Ultra will not simply be two M5 Maxes stuck together, but I would not put money on it.
It depends on how much the 8 terabyte SSD costs.
As soon as they introduce the โ I'm going to try to get like a friends and family discount from Apple, from folks that I know who work there.
And sometimes the friends and family discount is not available immediately.
Like you can't preorder with it or whatever.
So it might be a while after the M5 whatever comes.
Mac Studios come out.
I have to wait around until they show up with the friends and family discount.
But when that happens, I will buy one.
And will I get the Max, which would be fine for me?
Will I get the Ultra if such a thing exists?
We'll talk about that on the show, I'm sure.
But that's the plan.
M5 something Mac Studio appearing on my desk whenever I can.
whenever i can order it and uh assuming i can afford the eight terabyte ssd because that's honestly i mean look it's not a coincidence that i made an app that saves disk space i am pressing up real hard against the four terabyte limit on my ssd i use my app a lot like for real like i use it to save disk space i need more disk space and the next size up that apple offers is eight and it's going to cost so much money um yes it is can confirm been there
That's what I'm planning for.
