I have a M1 Ultra Mac Studio with 128GB of RAM and the ability to run LLMs like LLaMa2 locally thanks to the unified memory architecture was a big factor. Just because you don't have a use for it doesn't mean everyone else is as blinkered as you.

As soon as the M3 Ultra lands, I am getting one, preferably with 256GB RAM.

Where is my M3 Ultra MacBook Pro? I’m okay with reduced battery if I can have 256GB of ram and the processing power.

Have you seen the size of the heatsink on the Mac Studio Ultra? It's there for a reason...

It's a 60W part, so it would probably be _just_ about doable (old MBPs had up to about 75W worth of stuff to cool between CPU and GPU, though they definitely struggled a bit and the battery life on the dGPU ones was never amazing).
