TSMC To Start Accepting 2nm Wafer Orders From April 1, New Report States That Monthly Production Output Target Is 50,000 Units By The End Of The Year

The progress of TSMC’s 2nm technology has been mentioned an innumerable number of times, with the Taiwanese semiconductor titan said to have reached an impressive milestone by registering a 60 percent yield of its next-generation manufacturing process. Now, according to the latest report, the company might be entering full-scale production soon because it will start accepting orders for its 2nm node from April 1. With demand said to be higher than what it was for 3nm wafers, a multitude of customers should be waiting

M4 Mac mini may have been one of Apple’s greatest gifts to aspiring creatives

Apple announced the redesigned last October. It’s by no means a new product at this point, and its coming up on 6 months old. However, I think it may be one of Apple’s greatest gifts to up and coming creators, developers, and all sorts of creative professionals.

It’s no secret that Apple Silicon has enabled Apple to ship far more performant chipsets in lower end machines. Before the transition to Apple Silicon, a being able to edit 4K video sufficiently was nothing but a

iPhone 18 Lineup To Feature Apple’s 2nm Chipsets, Analyst’s Wordings Imply That The SoC Upgrade Will Arrive To All Models, Removing The Differentiating Factor

Apple will likely name its first 2nm chipset as A20, with the possibility that there is a higher-end A20 Pro that is exclusive to the more expensive iPhone 18 range. Initially, we were thoroughly disappointed when we learned that GF Securities’ analyst Jeff Pu talked about the 2026 models being treated to a silicon that would be mass produced on TSMC’s third-generation 3nm process. Thankfully, a different analyst believes the 2nm upgrade will arrive a year from

Apple to adopt 2nm chip technology with next years iPhones, per report

According to supply chain analyst , Apple’s A20 chip should adopt TSMC’s 2nm process for the very first time. This means that next years iPhone 18 models should all take the leap to a next-generation chip architecture. Previously, it was unclear whether or not all iPhone 18 models would adopt 2nm tech.

This years iPhone 17 models will utilize TSMC’s third generation 3nm process, N3P. While newer generation chip architectures are able to yield performance and

Fully functional Apple-1 Computer sells for $375,000 at auction

Apple-1 was the first computer built by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, which marked the beginning of Apple. Unsurprisingly, finding an Apple-1 today is quite rare, especially one that still works. But someone has now bought an Apple-1 Computer for $375,000 at auction.

RR Auction confirmed on Friday the successful sale of the rare and historic Apple-1 Computer, which is still fully functional. The item was “meticulously restored” to operational condition by Corey Cohen,

Buying a five-year-old MacBook Air was the right decision for me

When I said I’d bought an M1 MacBook Air in 2025 , I must confess I was rather expecting comments along the lines of “what were you thinking?” Instead, the prevailing view appeared to be that there really isn’t any reason to favor the latest and greatest model for my type of use.

Having had the chance to try out the new machine in an Apple Store, I’m not 100% sure I’d favor an upgrade even if it were
