Apple got these out to take advantage of sales before the new ARM based chips hit the market for Windows. Personally I would hold off on any new laptop purchases unless totally necessary. The M1 family is still incredibly powerful and at a steep discount now. Apple is touting the M3 performance gains but in reality these gains only impact a very small percentage of heavy users. I don’t see the M3 impacting sales that much.
