The new M2 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are expected to continue the success of Apple's Mac.
The revenue goals of Intel have been lowered due to lower demand. The drop in shipments is between 14 and 16%, compared to the previously expected drop of 9%.
The makers of laptop computers are bracing for rough times in the years to come. Projections for shipments and revenue have been cut by companies such as Dell.
According to the report, Apple is expecting to ship 29 million MacBooks in the year 2022.
The transition from Intel to Apple's own custom-made chips is almost complete. The all-new M2 chip is said to be up to 15 times faster than an Intel powered model.
