No where did I say you can’t get a hold of one, I said they don’t have the volume. They’re behind Lenovo, HP, and Dell. The x86 market is massive and dwarfs Apple’s Mac manufacturing. | ||

I don’t buy this reasoning until there is evidence of orders going unfulfilled. I could make 20M units of something and leave my resellers as bagholders who then have to sell years old hardware at a discount- and by the internal consistency of your logic: I would have the volumes. | ||

Isn't this an artifact of the demand side and not the supply side? Yes, apple shipped fewer laptops than dell in 2025. That's because Apple laptops started at $1100 in 2025. They won't have a problem securing the chips for Mac Neo's, they're the same SOC as the iPhone. What, Apple is going to have an issue manufacturing a few million motherboards? | ||
