All that legacy bs crutchy stuff is the reason they are doing their own silicon. I am super stoked about the performance of my M1. Combine my experience w/ this machine + Apple's latest turnaround w/ the Macbook Pro's - my faith is restored. If I needed a new rig I would not hesitate to pick one of these up.

I don't deny there are some genuinely interesting tech coming out of Apple (I wish I could buy an M1 without all the Apple baggage), but the problem is not crusty old tech, there will always be flaws and technical issues... the problem is this persistent attitude of covering shit up and flat out lying to customers faces, especially when they have spent so much fricking money on a premium product.
I can't buy from a company who deeply disrespects their customers in this way. This will sound like an extreme reaction to anyone who hasn't experienced this side of Apple yet - but just wait until you experience it first hand.
You're being overdramatic. They responded to the criticism of the pro community with the new Macbook Pro which has been unanimously seen as an olive branch.
