There was some bad history between Apple and Nvidia. Perhaps with a new generation of leadership at Apple things might change.

I wasn't in the room when it happened, but this is very different than the story told internally about why Apple became allergic to Nvidia.

Arguably more petty. SJ has been dead for almost 15 year now, I imagine the C-suite might get over it at some point.

Maybe with Tim and Jensen going on holiday together in China, the relationship might be healed somewhat.

Things have moved on since the days where GPUs in Macs were a priority.

But then the AI race has changed things. So who knows - maybe we will one day see official eGPU support from Apple and new drivers from nVidia. Wouldn't put on money on it though....
