I was just glancing at Apple's current lineup (including refurbs) and got the usual sticker shock. Wowza. The Pro line is like buying a car.
Then looking at the mini (M1) I was noticing the shortage of ports (only one video output, gotta use usb I guess for a 2nd monitor) and thinking it is not very exciting.
Which then made me think that the motive to build a Hackintosh has not diminished. I would still rather have a Hackintosh, since there's no way I can afford a Pro. But the M1 seems like an ominous development.
So... how are the Wizards of Hackintosh feeling about the future? Will Apple continue to support x86 hardware, or will they go 100 pct M1, proprietary, enclosed? Any speculations? I don't expect to build another one for quite a while, as I am more than content with what I'm sitting at I'm just curious as to how the deeply expert perceive current trends, where they are leading etc.
