Izinyanga ezimbalwa zokungabaza okuningi kusondela kubasebenzisi bamanje nabesikhathi esizayo bamakhompyutha we-Mac.I-Apple isingene esitshalweni esikhulu, ngoshintsho olusuka kuma-processor ase-Intel amanje laya kuma-Macs anesakhiwo se-ARM. Ubhabhadisile wathi hamba ngegama le- I-Apple Silicon.
Lolu shintsho luzohamba kancane, lube lude futhi lubize, luthinte yonke imikhakha: abakhiqizi, abathuthukisi, kanye nabasebenzisi. Okungenani, i-Apple iqinisekise ukuthi kulolu shintsho, izinhlelo zamanje nezesikhathi esizayo ezenzelwe ama-Macs anama-processor we-Intel akufanele zenziwe kabusha ama-ARM Macs azayo, zizoqhubeka zisebenze sibonga i-emulator I-Rosetta 2.
I-Apple ivule ibhokisi likaPandora futhi yazise ngezinwele futhi isayina uhlelo lwayo olukhulu lokusuka kwi-Intel isebenzise ama-chips ayo kuma-Macs wangomuso. Le nkampani ithe ushintsho luzohlala cishe iminyaka emibili: ukuhambisa izinhlelo zokusebenza kupulatifomu entsha futhi nokulungiselela ukwakheka kwe-chip kwamamodeli ahlukile we-Mac.
Ngesikhathi sokushintsha, i-Apple izoqhubeka nokudedela ama-Macs amasha we-Intel unyaka noma ngaphezulu. Ukungabaza okukhulu abathengi besikhathi esizayo bamaMacs abazoba nakho. Ngabe bazothenga i-Intel Mac, bazi iphrojekthi ye-Apple Silicon? Angicabangi kanjalo.
Le nkampani ichaze ukuthi i-Intel Macs ngeke isuswe futhi isazoqhubeka nokuxhaswa iminyaka ezayo. Kodwa-ke, umbuzo omkhulu ukuthi ama-Macs amasha asuselwa ku-ARM azoba yini ehambisanayo ngezicelo zamanje ezakhelwe ama-Intel Macs.
I-Apple yethule amathuluzi wabathuthukisi ukuhambisa kalula izicelo zabo kubuciko obusha be-Apple. Kodwa-ke, akubona bonke abathuthukisi abangahambisa izinhlelo zabo zokusebenza, kepha i-Apple ikumbozile. Inkampani iveze «I-Rosetta 2»Ubuchwepheshe bakho bokulingisa.
I-Rosetta yasetshenziswa ekuqaleni ngesikhathi soguquko kusuka ku- I-PowerPC iye kwi-Intel ngo-2006. Le nkampani yethula i-Rosetta 2, eyilandela ngqo kwezobuchwepheshe bokulingisa ezovumela izinhlelo zokusebenza ezakhelwe ipulatifomu ye-Intel Mac ukuthi isebenze kuma-Macs ngokususelwa kuma-chip aphathelene ne-Apple.
Ukulingisa, yebo, kunakho izici ezingezinhlenjengezikhathi zokulayisha ezihamba kancane nokusebenza okungalungile. Kodwa-ke, ngesikhathi se-WWDC, i-Apple ikhombise ngohlelo lweMaya olusebenza kuRosetta 2, futhi isipiliyoni sabonakala sihamba kahle. Kepha-ke, uma idemo lenziwe kwi-iMac Pro, bakhohlise kancane.
Vele asazi ukuthi ngabe konke izinhlelo zokusebenza zizosebenza ngokufanayo, kepha okungenani uhlelo ngalunye oluvela kuma-Intel Macs lungasetshenziswa kuma-Macs asuselwa ku-ARM azayo.
I-Apple iveze ngesikhathi somhlangano wayo wonyaka wonjiniyela ukuthi abathengisi abakhulu be-software abanjengo I-Microsoft ne-Adobe sebeqalile ukusebenza kuzicelo zomdabu zamaMacs azayo anama-Apple chips. Abathuthukisi abaningi bazosebenza maduzane futhi, kepha uma abambalwa bengakwenzi, iRosetta 2 izokulungisa.
