At the developer conference yesterday, June 22, one of the expected announcements occurred. Apple presented macOS Big Sur in society and this operating system will be in charge of managing the first Mac with Apple Silicon. A Mac totally free of external components. Intel or AMD will no longer be available for their processors and graphics. But that doesn't mean that Intel no longer exists for Apple.
The union between Intel and Apple comes from afar And not because you want to change the internal aspects of Apple computers, will the existing relations between the two companies be broken. So at least Tim Cook himself has hinted in his declaration of intent and also those responsible for Intel.
Apple wants the first Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS Big Sur to be launched by the end of the year. The total transition occurs in two years. So in two years, Intel will have to continue supporting Macs on the market with its processors and collaborating with Apple on other existing devices. But what is clear is that in time, Intel will fall by the wayside.
Those who are part of Intel have made these statements after hearing Tim Cook's official announcement at WWDC 2020:
Intel remains focused on delivering the most advanced PC experiences and a wide range of technology options that redefine computing. We believe that Intel-powered PCs, such as those based on our upcoming Tiger Lake mobile platform, provide global customers with the best experience in the areas they value most, as well as the most open platform for developers, both today and in the future. ».
Apple CEO did not close the door to Intel Definitively:
We plan to continue to support and release new versions of Mac OS for Intel-based Macs in the years to come. In fact, we have some newer Intel-based Macs in the works.
