In this episode: we discuss some of the issues which are still unresolved on the M1 Macs; talk about how small YouTube channels get products for review, and; we look ahead to WWDC 2021 and the Apple Keynote on 7 June 2021 - which hardware and software releases are we expecting? Will there be new iMacs, new MacBook Pros or new iPad Pros? Will there still be a spring event?

In this podcast episode, we discuss Intel's publication of their strategy to increase silicon production, start their 7nm process, and generally catch up with the competition. We also talk about the possible release of a new iMac soon...

...and Pete consumes something very disgusting indeed.

In this podcast episode we discuss Intel's GoPC marketing campaign, which appears to have missed the mark quite badly.

Pete also does possibly the worst impression of Marty McFly we have ever heard.

In this episode we talk about the data we've collected so far in our survey and offer some initial insights into the high data writes issue some Apple users are reporting. We also consider some of the comments we've had and look at some Apple news.

In this week's podcast episode, we reminisce about simple times in the world of computing - can you believe it has been 40 years since the introduction of Sinclair's ZX81? A game changing machine that brought home computing to the masses, and spawned the even more popular ZX Spectrum. Without these computers, things might have been very different!

We also look at the ongoing Silicon shortage and the unobtanium that is nVidia's new RTX 3060 GPU. And the hot topic of the M1 SSD comes up again.

In this episode we look at some of the user stories of high data writes to their Apple M1 SSD. Is this a result of heavy swapfile usage? Is Adobe software to blame? Does the average user need to worry?

We also look at new releases from Blackmagic Design and discuss the future possibilities for Apple Silicon.

Intel has released some benchmarks claiming that Apple's M1 is not as good as everyone says... and that we should be instead looking to their Evo platform and the Core-i7 1185G7. Perhaps Intel should keep focusing on improving their product line rather than wasting time trying to claim dubious wins in obscure tests? What do you think?

In this episode we answer some questions about lifespan of the SSDs in the Apple M1 machines, and cover some of the latest Apple news... like the new dual-8K VR headset Apple is apparently making.

Naturally a tech podcast wouldn't be complete with out some culinary misadventures - tune in to see what Pete Eats this week!

Apple's M1 is rather good. The next version will be even better... so does this spell the end for x86? Let's discuss.

Also this week: Pete eats cheese; Dayv doesn't break any bones, and; why CPUs are a bit like sandwich shops.

In this week's episode, we talk about some of the issues with the M1 Macs, and explain why its extraordinary value might encourage some professionals to have both Mac and PC... and enjoy the best (and worst) of both worlds.

We also talk about Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, VR, Sony's new Airpeak drone along with the new UK drone legislation, and Pete laughs at the outcome of a fight between Dayv's toe and a breadboard.

Sit back and enjoy (or endure) another episode of the Constant Geekery Podcast.
