Even in the M1 Max version, the case is practically half-filled with fans and cooling gear.īesides the look - a gently rounded square with an Apple logo on top - there's not much common ground between the Mac Studio and the Mac Mini. That version has a bigger, heavier heat sink (that weighs about two pounds more), because the M1 Ultra is essentially two M1 Max chips joined together. We've only tested the M1 Max version of the Mac Studio so far, not the M1 Ultra version. The Mac Mini (left) next to the Mac Studio.

Its only comparison within the Appleverse right now is the professional-level Pro Display XDR, a 32-inch display that starts at $5K, plus an extra $1,000 if you want its sold-separately stand.

Not dealing with issues in its free software is one thing, but Adobe has the same mindset with its paid-for software such as InDesign. The big downside is that Adobe has a poor reputation for fixing problems with its software, as general users may have noticed with the long string of problems that have come up with Flash and Acrobat. InDesign has also been successfully used by publishing houses to publish ebooks, and pop-up footnotes is a standout feature. At it's heart it's still all about setting up grids for text and images and that's usually not too hard for people to work with.Īdditionally, InDesign has a great set of additional tools for working with digital and print media, which means if you need long-running printing for your project you should have no problem setting up the required color specifications for your printers. There can be something of a learning curve when it comes to using it, but it's not as steep as you might think. As part of the Adobe family of apps, that means it comes with a lot of features and functionality. Adobe InDesign has become one of the most commonly used DTP's out there for professionals.
