We are 30 minutes away from the Scary Fast Apple event.

I came across an Apple event bingo card from the Basic Apple Guy blog.

Are there any items on the list you don't expect to happen or 100% sure will happen? Is there anything missing? Let's get the conversation started.

It's interesting that they keep harping on "when upgrading from an Intel-based Mac". I guess their data shows that a lot of users are still on Intel chips. Or maybe it just makes a better comparison?

I’m guessing it’s a little bit of both…

Apple is the king of better number bigger graph.

It’s definitely a bit of both. But nobody with an M1 Mac should really consider upgrading to an M3 unless they really want some specific new features.

I’m so on an old Intel MacBook Pro. Getting 16 GB RAM (which back then was more of an unusual investment) really has helped the machine stay quite workable.

The only problematic part of the laptops age is that Apple no longer supports it with OS upgrades 🤷.

@maegul @sosodev I had a similar MacBook Pro setup. When Apple quit supporting OS upgrades for it, I was able to install Linux on it and it screams!
