For those who may not be aware the base m3 pro chip is about as powerful as the m4 (non pro) chip and the m4 pro chip is "much" faster than the m3 pro.
On the other hand m3 max is a very fast chip too/ huge jump from the m3 pro.
The difference between m4 max and m4 pro is not that stark as the difference between m3 max and the m3 pro.

Having said that the m3 pro is still a very fast chip capable of handling a wide variety of tasks.
Just tried and get rejected because the model is not an exact match on their website.

Wonder if it's better to wait for a deal on the M4 processor?
Something telling me that the ME chip will fall further in price.
This would be the heck of a deal in the 1300 range.
Anyway waiting for M4 pro Costco deal

That's a heck of a deal for anyone that can actually use all that horsepower and storage. Video/Graphic production types.

Kind of overpriced for a base m3 pro. M4 pro with 24gb will easily outperform this for less money.

Nope.

I have a company equipped M1 pro 32 GB RAM with 1 TB storage. Do I need to get one for my personal use? My job is pretty stable, it is a public company and I have stayed with them for 5 years. I have apple icloud to back up all my personal data, the only motivation for me to buy one is writing code for my own personal website. Any suggestions?

I just learned last night that the m3 line was so short lived (6 months) because the process node was seriously botched and they actually had the entire m3 product line split on 2 process nodes, and the pro used the inferior node.

And Apple knew. Instead of risking a class action on the possibility of failed chips, they moved to the m4 line.
