What Apple did with the M1 MacBook Pros was to add a pair of M1 models to replace the existing 1.4 GHz i5 & 1.7 GHz i7 entry-level Intel MBPs with two Thunderbolt ports. The higher-end 2.0 GHz i5 & 2.3 GHz i7 remain as Intel MBPs and have four T/bolt ports
@joeo10 I notice Apple isn’t calling it RAM but Unified Memory. Possibly operating in a manner similar to swapfiles.
I bought a HomePod Mini online yesterday. When they were announced, the Apple website said order on Nov 7, deliveries start on Nov 16.
That’s blown right out, I can now expect it between Dec 9 & 16.

@matigo iOS 14 beta users are being notified with a constant message about a non-existent update.
@matigo Phone only gets hot if I forget to position it inverted (the charger is an easel-type) while in its case. Not only does it get hot but also doesn’t charge. This is because the case has a small steel plate such to the back near the bottom so I can attach it to a magmetic mount in the car. When inverted, the steel plate is clear of the induction coils.
