I’m going to call semi-bullshit here, or there is a major revisionist version or catch. If this were true, they’d be STUPID to not be working fast as hell to get full, unlocked Linux support up streamed and start selling this as a datacenter competitor to what Amazon, Microsoft, and Amazon are offering, because it would a entirely new class of performance. It could also dig into Nvidia and AMDs datacenter sales at scale of this efficient.

They out desktop cooling on the testbench apparently.
They’re also comparing to only the base M4 chip, not the Pro.
Also the M5 could still come out this year. But it also might not so it’s still a fair comparison till then.
