I think they are trying to get out of the market of being everybody's dev machine. There's probably some interesting stuff maybe coming for mac pro. I'd be really surprised if they refresh that line in the next 4 years. I think the headset with the watch and the new M series processor they are angling for a shift in how computing is done and they've taken it really slow to make sure they can roll something like that out without huge system shock. The Apple watch sucked for about as long as the iphone did. Let the heads come in and pay a preminum and make it flash enough that the people who won't buy one early won't get one and complain.

If they mess this up though, AR the way I've been thinking should have been here for a while now and in some circles is here, but the dream of that mass adoption is dead for 10 years IMO. Everyone else bailed but they were all doing VR modified aside from Magic Leap, but Magic Leap changed what they were trying to do (peizo driven fiber laser retina projection) to the same (but a nice implimentation) of a waveguide setup. Well produced. Also ugly, stupid, too expensive, and not good enough.

Anyway, looking forward to seeing the release. I'm 100% with you on the native container support. I think with how any of this stuff works to break the rectangle, native container support is crucial. Does it start going through the browser? WebASM? WebGPU? WebRTC? Vulkan not CUDA? OSX via Docker with Nvidia GPU passthrough over mTLS and then run docker containers in a yet to be released version of OSX that has native container support.
