Apple Halts Higher-RAM Mac Mini and Mac Studio Orders Amid Shortage

TL;DR Summary
Apple's U.S. store shows higher-RAM Mac mini configurations (32GB/64GB) and Mac Studio configurations (128GB/256GB) as unavailable, with remaining options facing multi‑month delivery estimates. The shortage is tied to a global RAM crunch driven by AI-server demand, and Apple has already removed the Mac Studio's 512GB option. A refresh using M5-class chips is anticipated, but timing remains uncertain.
