Yesterday, it seemed like most of the big tech news was Apple and Microsoft. Not only did Microsoft spend $20 billion on Nuance, (a company you’ve probably never heard of), but it also introduced a new Surface Laptop. We’ll get to that in a minute.First, Apple sent out invitations for another event, once again to be streamed online. Apple has gotten so good at the format, I find myself actually a little worried it may just stick to this version. Hopefully that’s not the case, and Apple will eventually invite people back to Cupertino for events in the future.
