That's considerate that they realized they shouldn't compromise the quality of the one site?
Yes it is one of those thing Tomshardware and Anandtech had problems with in their early days. They dont report rumours, only Facts and in-depth reviews. But rumours gets the click and ads revenue.

64GB is available on the current-gen 64GB, so not offering it would be a step backwards.
64GB was available on the previous Mac Mini, but they took a step backwards and capped the new one at 16GB, no reason they won't do the same with the MBP.
i love my mac, can't wait for this upgrade people like to hate on the OS, but i find it super beautiful and easy to use i don't know how to describe it, but i feel good when i use my mac in contrast, everytime i have to boot windows, i feel like i'm oppressed by some corporate, i feel closed, the whole experience is boring, windows needs a serious REBOOT, not a reskin, a whole reboot, including deleting NTFS

I'd guess option A. They aren't doing radical redesigns, so ramping up is easy and fast. They've pulled an Osborne Effect on their Intel devices by announcing they are transitioning in just a couple years. Nobody wants to buy a brand-new second-class product. Finally, launching their new laptops this fall means they are half-way through their transition time, but just getting started with their most powerful segment.
There are still a lot of people who need Intel, primarily people doing cloud development and in particular those who aren’t using an interpreted language. I don’t how big this group is as a percentage of Apple customers, but in an absolute sense it’s significant — several $B worth anyway. Also there are people who won’t buy M1 because they are (probably correctly, though I haven’t had any problems) hearing that not e…

Sounds like the system Buzzfeed has where the clickbait branch feeds the (legitimately good) news branch.
Doesn't say a lot. It's mostly speculation, the chip is listed here [1]. Notable info: Still at 5nm; double the GPU cores. Reports up to 3 displays, so it's safe to assume 2+1 external/internal. 8 High perf cores and 4 little perf cores. PCIE gen 4, no idea about number of lanes.

Comparison: https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-apple_m1x-1898-vs-... I am finding the numbers a little bit too perfect to put much faith into. Single core performance that is exactly identical between the two? Floating point performance exactly double? Seems a bit off.

Yeah, I'm calling it now - no chance of 128GB in a Macbook Pro. 64GB even is doubtful.
You can't even get above 16GB with the M1. You can with the i9. It took me MONTHS to receive my 16GB M1.
It was a pleasant shock. I ended up returning it as it turns out I really do need at least 32GB of RAM, but it was VERY difficult to take it back.
Even if this rumor is way overhyped, I still can't wait for a MBP that can take at least 32GB of RAM. I'll be there with bells on!

I literally have a previous Mac Mini with maxed-out RAM thanks to OWC and their RAM upgrades. Also one of the new Macbook Pros. From my experience with both, I think you might be very unhappy in retrospect if you bet that more RAM is going to make the most recent Intel one come within shouting distance of even an 8GB M1 Mini. The old one was one of the best for single-core performance within its generation, but they'…
They just started the Apple Silicon transition. A bit early for the doom and gloom, no?
