Wow, this is exciting to me as a Mac user. 2000 nits to Apple's 1600. 262 pixels per inch to Apple's 254. Mini LED vs Apple's XDR (I genuinely don't know enough about display tech to intelligently asses here, but I expect Mini LED to be superior; please correct me if I'm wrong). Unified memory up to 128GB (same).

I was excited about the ARM laptops that came out a couple of years ago because there were a lot of promises about them moving the industry forward. In the end, I think they were mostly nothing all that special. This, however, really appears to rock the boat. I want Apple to have to compete. I want the best Mac I can get and this laptop will challenge Apple to work harder. This is good for everyone.
