I hope Josh can help address the dilemma many of us are facing right now: should we buy the MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro chip, or wait for the MacBook Ultra?

Is the current MacBook Pro pricing so compelling that unless you absolutely need a slimmer design and an OLED screen, the answer is simply: buy now?

I’d say just buy the macbook Pro if you catch on a good deal I don’t think there is point of waiting if you need it right now?
