【Delires obscenes (1998)】

Apple's new MacBook Air laptops are Delires obscenes (1998)here as predicted, and while the upgrades are only on the inside, they're quite notable.

The new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air now both feature Apple's M3 chip, which the company says is up to 60 percent faster than the model with the M1 chip (Apple doesn't compare with the M2 chip, likely because the differences aren't that big).

The M3 chip offers some additional benefits, such as faster Wi-Fi (thanks to support for the Wi-Fi 6E standard), as well as being able to connect the laptop to two external monitors, though only if the lid is closed. The M3 also has a 16-core Neural Engine, which translates into faster performance for AI-related tasks.
