Apple is, in fact, close.
Of course, but by the time Apple does that the next gen HED chips will be out, and the 3990X won’t be the benchmark anymore. The current gen ROME chips, from which they will come out score it heavily already. I think Apple is doing great, I’m just saying M1 stuff isn’t the best thing since sliced bread. I also don’t think the AMD and Intel platforms are better or worse, just different. If you need a Mac to get your work done, it does the job more than well enough. It’s the blind fanboy talk that just turns me off.
