 The the MacBook Pros, to me, were certainly the most exciting thing that Apple did. The and and, of course, the evolution of the M one, which we'll talk about, too. But the 14 and 16 inch MacBook Pros really like. What they're doing with those really blew me away. They it the it's what's I don't know. I didn't even know where to start with this. The for those of you that are going to go order one and you can bring up my screen for the video, John. But if you're going to go order one of these things, they the pricing that Apple announced is the baseline pricing for these. So on the 14 inch, they say that it is nineteen ninety nine and on the 16 inch, they say that is twenty four ninety nine. Nineteen ninety nine on the 14 inches, the eight core version of the M one pro CPU with a five twelve gig SSD. You bump that up to twenty four ninety nine. If you want the 10 core version, this is the 14 inch, right? So 10 core CPU, which is the one that they were sort of pushing is the M one pro, that's twenty four ninety nine. That's and it also bumps it up to a one terabyte SSD. You can go deeper, though, and spend more. Of course, because from there, from that 10 core CPU at twenty four ninety nine for the 14 inch, you can jump up two hundred bucks to the max with a twenty four core GPU or a max for another for another two hundred so four hundred total for it with a thirty two core GPU. You can add that sixteen gigs of RAM going up to thirty two gigs. We'll bump it up another four hundred bucks. If you add the max CPU, then you can go up to sixty four gigs of RAM. Which is eight hundred bucks. And then, of course, you can bump up the SSDs and those sorts of things. So that's on the 14 inch. So these start to get expensive very quickly, which is not overly surprising. It's just how it be. The 16 inch is suffers a similar fate. The twenty four ninety nine on the 16 inch is the 10 core CPU, right? But only a five twelve gig SSD. So this is interesting. For twenty four ninety nine, you can get the 14 inch with a one terabyte SSD or the 16 inch with a five twelve gig SSD. Same price. That's because it's the same CPU, 10 core, 16 core GPU, of course. And then the 16 gigs of RAM. So that it's the prices of these. That nineteen ninety nine is a bit of a distraction. So but I I I did. I ordered. Did you order one of these? I ordered a 14 inch. I probably will keep it, to be perfectly honest. But I ordered it just to because I want to see what it's like. But I did it with the 10 core CPU. Did you or did you or are you going to order one of these, Mr. Braun? Maybe. OK. Which one would you order? I'm curious. Would it be the 14 inch screen? No, or the 16 inch screen? No, I like. Because, yeah, I have the current 16 inch, right, Intel based. I like having lots of screen. Lots of screen. OK. Yeah. So I think I get the 16 inch. The nice thing is that they increase the. You know, the RAM, the maximum RAM, right? But I think I get it with 16. I don't think I need more. But for people that need more, it's nice that they introduce the new chips. I mean, we were all suspecting that they would have, you know, a M1 X or M1 and yeah, and they did. Right. That's nice. Right. Well, yeah, we'll talk about the difference between the M1 Pro and the M1 Max in a minute here. But interesting. Yeah. So the let's let's talk. You mentioned RAM, I have 16 on both my M1 Max, my my air and my mini. And that has been enough. There has been issues that we've heard about from a few Mackie kebblisters. There's many of you out there who are consultants who, you know, see lots of different max, of course, from different clients. And there's been a series of reports people with eight gigs of RAM in their M1 Max that are running into if they have lots of tabs open in a browser, could be Safari, could be Chrome, doesn't matter. It they get the, you know, your machine is out of RAM. We don't know what to do, you know, error message. I'm obviously paraphrasing there. So but I have never experienced that with 16. I think we've heard one report of it happening with 16, but certainly not as common as with eight. I on the on the 14 inch that I ordered, I bumped it up to the the the 16, the 32 gigs of RAM, just to, you know, if I figure if I'm going to do it, I might as well, you know, have the future proof it a little bit. So so, yeah, yeah, I think I think 64 is great. If you really need it, I think 32 is it might be overkill. But, you know, we tend to keep our machines while around here. So I figure it's worth the investment up front, because obviously you can't you can't change it. So the screens are are interesting. The four the 14 inch screen, the display does 3024 by 1964. It's got 5.9 million pixels and the 16 inch display. 7.7 million pixels, 3456 by 2234. So that's a I mean, that's a either one of those is a lot of screen real estate. That's absolutely fantastic. And yeah, I noticed something that in my humble opinion, should not be spread among the product line. OK, but yeah, some people suspected that they would put a notch. And yes, there is a notch. Now, I mean, the good news is that it's a better camera. So it's now 1080p FaceTime camera. It's like, what took you guys so long to figure that out? Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But having a notch in there just well, there were two problems with a notch, a notch, including the notch on my iPhone, Dave, I just think it's. Kind of sloppy design, I don't know. Well, if you're going to put that camera there, you either need to leave room in the entire bezel for it or just that part of the bezel. And they've decided to make it just that part of the bezel. I do. I'm I'm curious, though, to see. I mean, look at what they've done with it on iOS, right? That becomes the, you know, the the the status bar, if you will, at the top of the screen. They they say that they've done the same thing with the menu bar, with the menu bar intelligently sort of wraps around the notch, which to me means a really like that. That to me is really smart design. It's like, OK, well, we need to notch this thing out because we want a camera here. We don't just want to make the bezel bigger because then you lose all that space for a screen. So to me, that seems like a really smart way of doing it. I'm but it also opens the door for bartender, right? The the the Mac tool, I think it Mac bartender.com, right? Yeah, Mac bartender, which is a tool I already use on all my Macs. Anyway, it allows you to have different sets of items that appear in your menu bar so that it's not just full of everything that you've barfed up there over the years. You can control what's there and what's not there and when things appear and when don't think when things don't appear. So I see I see these new notched Macs. Causing increase in sales for the bartender folks, which I think is great. I think it's it's I think it's, you know, again, I like the fact that they let me like, you know, you're looking at it in one way to look at it. I don't want to say how you're looking at it. I can't I can't I'm not inside your head. But one way to look at it is in the negative that they're taking space out of your screen. The other way to look at it is they just let me push my screen up into the bezel further, not with with the notch carved out, obviously, for the thing that the bezel needs to be there for. So I like I kind of like this. But we'll see how it is in practice. OK, what other things? Oh, bye bye touch bar. Yes. Well, and a new keyboard, right? Like that that keyboard sounds like it could be pretty fantastic. You know, it sounds it sounds like they are moving in the right direction with keyboards, which is a good thing, I think. So. Mm hmm. And some of the other choices that I think were interesting. So more ports. Yeah, I know, like the MacBook Pros have passed. Well, and MagSafe comes back as one of those ports. Oh, I say three. Yes. Yeah, but you get three, three Thunderbolt four ports and SD card eight. No, I think about it for photographers, man. That's a that's a highly used thing. So to not have to have a dongle when somebody's out in the in the field. I mean, this me buying this machine is it is way overkill for me. Right. I mean, this really is a pro machine.
