The iMac hasn’t had a major redesign in over 9 years. That could change tomorrow
Thinking your tired old iMac is just about on its last legs and in need of a replacement? You are in luck, because Apple is on the cusp of pulling off the biggest iMac revamp in a decade, meaning the long wait for change is almost over.

The revamp covers nearly every base, from the chip running the device to the external design. Let’s start on the inside. Last year, Apple began ditching Intel processors in its Macs and using its own Apple Silicon chips instead. The iMac has been left behind though, and its performance has been drastically overshadowed by the new MacBooks and Mac Mini . Not for much longer, though. The new iMac will be the first to come with a brand-new Apple Silicon chip, massively boosting the performance you can expect while simultaneously keeping things much cooler thanks to the … [Read more...] about The iMac hasn’t had a major redesign in over 9 years.

Citi Gives Nvidia’s Arm Purchase a 10% Chance of Approval
As the U.K. government on Monday announced plans to intervene in Nvidia's takeover of Arm on national security grounds, analysts from Citigroup reconsidered Nvidia's chance to acquire the CPU and GPU developer. The observers believe that now that Nvidia introduced its own Arm-powered datacenter CPU, the likelihood of it getting approval to buy Arm just got significantly lower. Oliver Dowden, the U.K.'s Digital Secretary on Monday issued a Public Interest Intervention Notice (PIIN) concerning the takeover and expressed his concerns about the proposed acquisition and national security. The antitrust investigation in the U.K. is expected to be concluded by the end of July. "Following careful consideration of the proposed takeover of Arm, I have today issued an intervention notice on national security grounds," said Dowden, as reported by CNBC . "As a next step and to help me gather the relevant information, the U.K.'s independent competition authority will now prepare a report … [Read more...] about Citi Gives Nvidia’s Arm Purchase a 10% Chance of Approval
A new supply shortage is now hitting SSDs and hard drives
Cryptocurrency miners are already blamed for the shortage of graphics cards in recent years, and the situation has become especially dire during the global pandemic when coupled with supply chain disruptions . If miners have their way, there’s another important PC component that could become scarce. It’s reported that if the new Chia cryptocurrency takes off, the PC industry and gamers may have to grapple with a shortage of storage, as inventory of hard disk drives and solid-state drives could quickly become depleted. Unlike existing cryptocurrencies, the Chia currency heavily relies on storage space, as it’s based on a “proof of space and time” model. On the other hand, currencies like Bitcoin are based on a “proof of work,” which doesn’t require as much storage. And, according to Wccftech , Chia was developed by BitTorrent creator Bram Cohen, who wants to rely on storage as a more environmentally friendly model. Cohen’s logic is that drives like SSDs and HDDs consume less … [Read more...] about A new supply shortage is now hitting SSDs and hard drives
