hardware upgrade to last year's 12-inch
MacBook you know the one that comes in
gold and only has one port to do
everything well the new macbook now has
a faster processor chip although it's
not as beefy as the processors in other
macs apple also says you can get one
more hour battery life out of this and
it comes in rose gold of course price is
still the same starting at around
thirteen hundred dollars but if you're
looking for something more interesting
from Apple and you'll have to wait
another two months Apple announced that
its annual worldwide developers
conference known as WWDC will kick off
on june thirteenth Apple has this
colorful little dost looking tease about
what may come this event is when Apple
talks about new software and operating
systems last year Tim Cook unveiled
Apple music at the event and that's not
all in Apple news the company has
confirmed that it will no longer patch
security problems for windows QuickTime
this comes after security experts warn
people to uninstall quicktime for
windows even the US Department of
Homeland Security told people to get rid
of the program because there are ways
hackers can use it to infect your
computer but this can be a headache for
some folks because some of the dobies
programs do require QuickTime the Apple
version of quicktime is safe so if you
really need it for work see if you can
