Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Apple Predicted to Launch ARM-Based Macs in the Next Year or Two
KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has issued a new report outlining his predictions for Apple chips over the next few years.
As one might expect, Kuo predicts that Apple will diversify its supplier lineup for A-series chips used in iOS devices. Samsung, TSMC, and GlobalFoundries are all said to contribute to future production.
For the A9 chip, Kuo predicts that production will be shared by Samsung and Global Foundries. TSMC is said to be responsible for production of the A9X processor that will reportedly be used in iPad models. In 2016 that split is said to flip with TSMC handling A10 production and Samsung being responsible for A10X chips.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - Apple, Google, Intel, and Adobe Reach New Deal to Settle Anti-Poaching Lawsuit
Apple, Google, Intel, and Adobe have agreed to a new settlement to end a class action lawsuit that accused the companies of conspiring to prevent the poaching of each other’s employees, reports Reuters.
Plaintiffs accused Apple, Google, Intel Corp and Adobe Systems Inc in their 2011 lawsuit of limiting job mobility and, as a result, keeping a lid on salaries. The case has been closely watched because of the possibility of big damages being awarded and for the opportunity to peek into the world of some of America’s elite tech firms.
After a plaintiff objected, a previous settlement of $324.5 million was rejected by U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh as being too low. Reportedly, that plaintiff will not object to the new settlement deal; however, his attorney would not reveal the amount of the new settlement and it was not in the court filing.
