Fantastic laptop - but if you need this powerful of a machine, chances are you also need more than 24gb memory. If you don't need more than 24GB memory, you probably don't need the 18/20 core M5 Pro chip at all. My opinion, of course.

Unless you can pick up in store, I was unable to price match at Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Abt.com

Bestbuy price matched, they were ready to ship, I opted for store pick up.

Per BestBuy policy, the item must be in stock at the store in your state. If they let it slide for you then that's awesome! I tried with two different BestBuy agents and both didn't allow it since it was OOS near my address (despite it being available in another state)

Seems to be fewer GPU and CPU cores. Not to say it's a bad deal or not preferable, just seems to compromise more than just the storage unless I am misreading something.

True that. For another $50 bucks you get a better configuration.

You're right. I missed the core count. However, 48g ram can load larger llm models.

Sure but is it as fast and fun as tokenmaxxing on your company's dime?

For this Price Point, it should be 48GB RAM. 24GB for $2.3K is very expensive.
