Excellent hands-on review Simon! Your point about the ecosytem being in early days is spot-on. The hardware capabilities are clearly impressive, but the real value will come from better documentation and tooling to help developers actually utilize the GB200's capabilities without needing to be CUDA experts. It's interesting how Nvidia is positioning this as a workstation rather than a server - that changes the target audience and use cases significantly.

how does performance compare to the M3/4 Pro/Max chips?
The DGX Spark's potential feels immense, but where do you see its ecosystem truely taking off, Simon; your analisys is profoundly sharp.
very interesting article
