Love the design but the chipset is weak when doing cad. Hopefully they bring back the intel chipset.
lol we know you're a troll because nobody in their right mind would say "hope they bring back Intel"

Nah. I actually work with cad software. Hence my reference to cad. If you think trolling is actually telling the truth and how our office got two macs which went to interns instead, then thats okay. Everyone who hasnt had a clue about this is entitled to their opinion
The reason you like Intel is because most industry Cad software is optimized for Intel. (Still, surely a valid reason as the end user)
Give it some time and hopefully it won't be necessary any more.
It's not really that Intel is "better at this", it's that Autodesk has optimized for Intel.

Corporations don't want to paint themselves into a corner. I personally know of one creative agency that got some M1s and returned them within a month. There were simply too many issues that hobbled deliverables, including critical software and plugins either not working correctly, or not even available.
That said, Apple will likely continue to offer the current Intels for quite a while due to corporate demand.

So even when M1's hardware advantage is very apparent, they're not doing so due to whatever 3rd party software they're using.
And considering the current consumer line of M1s are certainly not "pro" (in prior years, they would be simply called "Macbooks"), it will be quite a while for this conversion to happen.
Sure. Say that to a company in business for over 50 yrs with 8 offices around the states and 3 overseas.
But hey? What do I know? They wanted to try the new imacs since some of our rendering department is using them heavily and tried to transition them for cad use upon the recomendation of a guy who has an apple watch, iphone, brings his macbook pro, macbook air and ipad to work. We started with two. Then the interns got them and they will be doing photoshop and illustrator to fix pdfs and renders.
