Apple is releasing (finally) new Mac Studios tomorrow but there seems to be a lot of overlap between the M3 Ultra (the high end model) and the M4 Max (the entry model). Yes, even the naming is a bit confusing! The M4 is faster in single-core operatio...

Now that I'm exporting a Datasmith file rather than using DirectLink, has anyone had the issue of the model origin changing? I created a model, imported into TM and set up all the scenes and images, then I made some updates to the model in Archicad a...

Now that GS has released a specific software for Apple Silicon, has anyone tried it on their M-chipped machines? Noticeable difference?
