The new iMac computers are unveiled on April 20 via this illustration at a virtual event in La Habra, Calif. Apple said it could suffer a hit to its revenue as a shortage of chips could affect the production of iPads and Macs.
Supply chain disruptions are taking a bite out of Apple, and it may make it harder to get your hands on that shiny new tablet or laptop.
Apple warns it can t make enough iPads and Macs to keep up with demand, thanks to the global shortage in semiconductors that has already disrupted production at almost every major car company, from Ford to VW.

European Fab
Tomorrow’s meetings between Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, TSMC European President Maria Marced and EC Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton should be interesting.
The EU has stated its aspiration to make 20% of the world’s ICs and gain the capability to make the most advanced chips and is now looking for ways to achieve it.
Options include persuading TSMC, Samsung or Intel to establish foundries in the EU.
While these wouldn’t be European-owned production, the EU would presumably count their output as EU-produced, so contributing to the 20% goal.
The EU might also think that, once foundries are built in the EU, they are controllable by the EU in the same way it has tried to control EU-based vaccine factories.
