Just in time for Prime Day, Amazon is offering a nice little discount on the 2020 Apple MacBook Air with an Apple M1 Chip, 13-inch Retina display, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB solid-state drive.

So, the beautiful 2020 Apple MacBook Air. Should you buy it? In Digital Trend’s Apple MacBook Air (2020) review we closed out by saying that yes, you should buy it. “This is a solid option for Mac buyers who want an affordable daily driver.”

It features the Apple-designed M1 chip which offers excellent performance and has machine-learning support built in. The CPU has 8-cores, which is 3.5-times faster than the previous-gen MacBook models. The Air has a battery that will last for up to 18 hours on a single charge, so you can take it and use it just about anywhere, anytime — even if there are no outlets nearby. The superfast solid-state drive boots and loads quickly, and gets you in and out as fast as you need. Plus, it offers the same Mac experience you know and love.

Amazon is offering the 2020 MacBook Air, in all colors, for $949, which is $50 off the full price. As this is one of the latest models from Apple, this deal is not common and may not be available later in the year. Now’s as good a time as any to upgrade your laptop!

Microsoft’s new Surface PCs are cheaper — but there’s a catch
Cardboard, Box, Carton

The tech industry’s favorite balancing act is getting harder by the month. Component prices are rising, memory costs refuse to settle down, and laptop makers are scrambling to keep sticker shock under control. Microsoft’s latest Surface refresh feels like a direct response to that problem.

The company has introduced new entry-level versions of its 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface laptop, offering lower starting prices without changing the processor or storage. On the surface, that sounds like good news for budget-conscious buyers. Dig a little deeper, however, and you’ll find a compromise hiding in plain sight.

Crowd, Person, Architecture

The race to build the world’s fastest supercomputer has been dominated by the United States. Now, China has stormed back into the lead. A newly ranked system called LineShine has claimed the No. 1 position on the latest Top500 list, a closely watched ranking of the planet’s most powerful supercomputers. The machine, located in Shenzhen, pushed past the U.S. government’s El Capitan system and became the first Chinese computer to top the list since 2017. That’s notable on its own.
