> This question is trivially answered by visiting Apple's website, which is---to my point---not generally true for their competition.
wtf are you talking about? Intel, Nvidia, and AMD all absolutely have complete specs for their products readily available on their respective websites. Much, much more complete ones than Apple does as well.
I guarantee you that a quick scan of any of those companies' websites will not equip one with a useful general understanding of the naming scheme they use for their products, in the sense that one can see a product name and immediately know where it falls in their lineup and what workloads it's meant to handle. That is what "the fuck" I am talking about.
Intel desktop options are quite simple. My only complaint is on laptops, where the i3, i5, i7 thing conflicts with U vs H, and almost seems intentionally misleading. Like, why does i7-U even exist?
But the nice thing is you search the model name, and Intel gives you all the specs upfront.
I like how the table of suffixes hasn't been updated to add "V" but the section on Core Ultra uses 288V as an example. The document's too big to stay in sync with itself.
