Mark Gurman, Bloomberg:

Apple Inc. is preparing to announce a shift to its own main processors in Mac computers, replacing chips from Intel Corp., as early as this month at its annual developer conference, according to people familiar with the plans.

The company is holding WWDC the week of June 22. Unveiling the initiative, codenamed Kalamata, at the event would give outside developers time to adjust before new Macs roll out in 2021, the people said. Since the hardware transition is still months away, the timing of the announcement could change, they added, while asking not to be identified discussing private plans.

Take this with a grain of salt, of course, but the answer is less than two weeks away. And the concept of an Arm-based Mac does seem inevitable to me. Not hard to believe this announcement will happen.

Side note: Having been to so many WWDCs in person, this year’s remote event feels jarring to me. I’m excited for the keynote, look forward to seeing how Apple will make this happen, really appreciate the fact that this year is the great leveler, a WWDC that anyone who wants to can attend.

But that said, I’m already missing the Loop Bash, missing the camaraderie, the wee hours talking tech and clinking glasses with old and new friends in person.
