Exciting
Amazon?
This is the Thunderbolt to Display port I bought to use with my iMac, there must be loads of them about. The Mac Studio has an HDMI socket as well so you shouldn't need any adapters or anything special for that, just a cable.

Hoping to get my order placed within the next couple of weeks and then it'll probably be at least ten weeks before everything turns up. There's a possibility there might be two displays, not just the one listed here.
Base model Ultra with a 2Tb SSD.
Don’t forget it’ll be cooling the PSU as well - are there any readable temperature sensors in there?
Oh I didn’t think it was likely to overheat, just suggesting part of the reason for the fan running all the time is to keep the air flowing over the PSU as well.
The fan sound is clearly very subjective, the video linked just above says that they can barely hear it at all and with any other sound in the room such as AC, it’s completely inaudible.
How do you know it's not sleeping?
It's been a while since I had a Mac with a light but I think you're right.
There's an option under energy settings to prevent the Mac going to sleep when the screen is off, that's worth checking.
Nope, my iMac definitely goes to sleep with those.
Is it Smart Sleep? The Mac goes to sleep but wakes up from time to time to do certain tasks in the background?
Toggle it on, exit the settings, go back and toggle it off again.
Those are ex-vat prices, vat is added at the bottom.
I have access to that as well, the M1 MBA and the 13" M1 MBP (and possibly the mini, I didn't check) were on there at launch and it's disappointing that the newer models haven't been included.
At least I'll get a few quid off the keyboard and trackpad.
I absolutely love mine, I haven't used a mouse on a Mac since the day the original Magic trackpad was released back in July 2010. I upgraded to the Magic Trackpad 2 in 2015 and I'm still using that now. I'll replace it when I get the Mac Studio but that's just because the style has changed slightly so it matches the new keyboard.
That's good to know, thanks for the update.
Finally got mine ordered.

Yeah, I just wasn’t able to order any earlier but I’ve been able to save a few shillings so it’s been worth the wait. Reading the Macrumors forums, it seems that quite a lot of people are getting them up to a month ahead of their predicted date.
It’ll be nice to get everything early but not the end of the world if I don’t.
Max or Ultra? Standard spec or BTO?
I’ve never needed anything like BetterTouchTool with the trackpad.
Already want mine to arrive. It’s not even been a week since it was ordered!
I would hope it's software, same with the sleep issues being reported.
That's really good, my 2017 iMac at idle is about 75W and well over 200W on load.
No. I think it's rubbish. I've got one, I ordered one with my iMac as well as the trackpad and it's utter garbage. It's far too small, I find it uncomfortable and my hand aches if I try and use it for any period of time. The gestures you can use are limited compared to the trackpad and because I don't have hands that are the size of a teenage girl, it's impossible to actually use any of those gestures.
Don't even start me on the charging port being on the bottom
If you want to try one, buy it direct from Apple so you can return it within the fourteen days.
