    Desperate for a fix

    Curious - for those intel 16'MBP owners that were having external display issues in the release version of Monterey, are you still having them?

    Apple 2022 Display with Webcam

    Okay, how great would it be if Apple released a display with webcam. They should just throw a iPhone rear camera in the front and 120Hz. The ultimate display for remote work. That’s the dream display. What’s y’all thoughts on Apple releasing something like this?
