> My guess is that there's going to be 2 "Pro" variants for a high powered laptop and a professional workstation.

My guess is that they'll introduce one other ARM-based chip for Macs in 2021, targeted at all remaining Macs (except for the Mac Pro). I believe the differences in performance can be achieved with a single chip simply by binning and different power envelopes.

I expect (or rather I hope) that chip then supports at least 64GB of memory, 8TB of NVMe storage and 4 Thunderbolt 4 ports.



I'm thinking we might see a M1X which might add a couple cores to all the compute units in the SoC.
