Apple introduces its own chip in Macs

Some marriages can’t be saved, even in the tech world. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs took the help of the folks at Intel in 2005 to improve performance in Apple computers. What seemed like an ideal marriage has ended with Apple introducing its M1 chips, which will deliver better computing power and battery life for Macs. But Apple CEO Tim Cook’s move stems from Jobs’s philosophy of owning core technologies, which can make a difference in the long run. Though Intel only stands to lose a small share of its business, the move may inspire major computer makers to design its chips or turn to other suppliers.
