Apple only poses a threat if biz migrates to macOS. I have three M1 Macs. I bought the base model Mini yesterday (all they have in stock) at the local Apple Store. Crazy benchmarks in single core.
Wait until they launch that 50-core Mac Pro. I don't see (macOS) penetration beyond 20%.
Streaming the SB, running TOS, iOS TOS, ProRealTime and BBG anywhere (iOS) and the CPU is at 75% (spiking to 25% utilization) idle on activity monitor. I realize it's only futures but this thing is a M1 with 8GB.
The thing is amazing and utterly quiet.
