I thought new M4s disappeared from the marketplace, scarfed up by the llm folks and discontinued by Apple.

I remember looking for one when the m6 came out and it was revealed to not have upgradable SSD. I couldn't find one, now mc and bb have some.

The reason I own two of these is that you can upgrade the storage to 2TB for less than $300. It's a great machine for the money.

I would go for the m6 if you're going to do anything cpu heavy, multi core performance is like 50% better

Strongly agreed; the M6 for $100 more, unless that literally breaks the budget, is the smart play here.

Given the M6 is here, and significantly improved, I see this as far less important. If drive space matters to you, just get an external USB4/TB/etc. drive for 'cheap'.

They use the ridiculous upgrade prices to subsidize the base models so they can price the base ones low while still padding their margins. They have the highest profit margin of all computer makers.

bait and switch
  1. get buzz with the "cheap" entry level product
  2. realize it's too small
  3. upgrades are extremely expensive. fanboys walk up apple's price ladder
  4. profit. apple is a $5 trillion dollar company and perfected this bait and switch model.
