The UK government has ended its plug-in car grant program, effective immediately. The scheme launched in 2011, with grants up to £5,000 or 25 percent of the cost of the car, which gradually reduced to £1,500 — until today. The grant ends on future sales but will still be honored for any buyers that already applied for it.
Apple has announced it’ll start taking orders for the 13-inch MacBook Pro M2 on June 17th for deliveries on June 24th. The system starts at $1,299 with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. In a sense, its greatest rival will come from Apple: the still-to-be-released MacBook Air M2. You won't get a cooling fan or the longest possible runtime, but you will get a larger screen, a MagSafe power connection, more free ports and a slimmer, lighter chassis.
