1st July, 2025: Quebec.
Right …
It’s official.
It’s just gone 7:30 on a July morning.
And … ?
The thermostat in the hallway is telling me it’s 26.5℃ in here.
The weather’s going to get warmer.
And … ?
I think I’m going to get sweatier, today … !
Ho … hum … !

You know, tech news is something that interests me.
So does the gossip.
Something that did catch my attention?
Is the gossip that says that Apple are potential going to be introduction a model of MacBook Air — their lightweight laptop — with an A18 processor.
The processor that powers recent models of iPhones.
There’s possibly a couple of points, there.
I know that — when he rejoined the company in the 1990s — former CEO, Steve Jobs, culled a lot of Mac models: so the company could reduce manufacturing costs
Will this leave the company vulnerable?
I don’t know: but it’s something the management team may need to keep their eyes on.
The other?
Is that the possible model is supposed to be the new low-end, cheap, option.
Roughly equivalent to the current £999 option.
Will that work for them?
Would that appeal to those who would otherwise buy a cheap Windows machine?
Or a Chromebook?
We’ll have to see: a lot of that appeal will come down to price-point …
