"Apple teases another Mac, that is not for sale right now, with Pro in the name, and says that it is coming next year" |

"The new Mac Pro will be..." |
-1 |
| - "... smaller, not a cube shape, feature no support for the current MPX modules and/or will allow for some form of expandability outside of Thunderbolt. It will be only be available in one color."
- Another "and/or" added to a pick, which happened a few times this episode. It applies to just the MPX modules and expandability clause.

"A new base model Mac mini is introduced with the M2 chip..." |
-1 |
| - "... The new Mini is at least 30% smaller than the current one. It's thicker, but narrower, making it more similar to an Apple TV or Intel NUC."
- In other words, closer to a cubic shape, but not necessarily a cube. Although Federico loves cubes, so that would be great.
- The base model would get updated the next year, but it's the same shape.
