Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) takes place online June 7-11. That's just over three weeks away. So what do we expect?
Known unknowns
It's interesting how little we think we know this year, but don't let the lack of anticipation fool you. This may turn out to be a year in which Apple lays the foundations for its next wave of new product launches.
All the same, when Apple goes quiet, I grow curious.
State of the transition: The Mac
Apple only recently introduced new iMacs. These are already racing to the top of the speed charts, delivering 37% gains in comparison to Intel Core i7 and i9 models, making these all-in-ones a nemesis for HP and a viable proposition for any enterprise looking to invest in new desktops.

In this episode of The Full Nerd, Gordon Ung, Alaina Yee, Mark Hachman, and Adam Patrick Murray dig into everything Intel revealed about its set of 45W Tiger Lake H mobile processors, the rumblings that Ryzen 5000 mobile performs badly when battery powered, and Nvidia's official announcement of its RTX 3050 and 3050 Ti mobile graphics chips.
The party starts with Mark giving the full rundown of five new six- and eight-core Tiger Lake H chips, then kicks up into high gear when Gordon decides to nix any arguments about Apple M1 superiority—in advance of them being made.
