To commemorate the first year of Apple’s switch to silicon, Apple is giving its engineers a commemorative t-shirt for the occasion. With a design worthy of one of the company’s Keynotes, this gesture shows, once again, the importance of a successful transition.
A detail to recognize a job very well done
When Apple told us about Apple’s silicon transition at WWDC 2020 it was hard to imagine the scale and impact of such a paradigm shift Of course, Apple had achieved something similar with the switch from PowerPC to Intel, but the size of the company is now light years away from the little Apple that made the jump to Intel a few years ago. .

And even with all of this, Apple is making a transition that, on the one hand, is invisible to those less interested in technology, which is good news, and, on the other hand, is making headlines in the trade media. , which is also good news.
A great success that the company wanted to share with its engineers by offering the shirt that Andy Boretto, Senior Software Engineer, chose Share on twitter and what we see in the image above. A delivery accompanied by a text specifying that “Every once in a while something pops up that changes everything. Congratulations and thank you for making the Apple M1 possible! “
Everything seems to indicate that the transition will materialize this year, possibly during WWDC in June. This tells us that there are still a lot of surprises and joys to be seen from Apple’s silicon, we will be attentive to the novelties.
