A Daily Princetonian article reports that the number of Princeton University students buying Macs has increased substantially over the past 3 years.
According to their Office of Information Technology, 45% of computers purchased this year were Macs.

While it was initially rumored that Touch ID may be coming to the Apple Watch this year, Gurman reiterated that he does not expect the Series 12 or Ultra 4 to have any major design changes compared to the current Series 11 and Ultra 3 models.
