For a while, it was generally accepted that a faster (faster clock speed) processor meant a faster computer. Then, as different architectures were introduced, a processor could achieve the same, if not better performance, at a slower clock speed.

App development arena is becoming more and more competitive with every passing day. There are hundreds of thousands of app developers working across the globe, some making tons of money while others just keep it as much as to cover their expenses.

Things are still a little better for those developers residing in North America. The survey suggests the developers on average earn $9,400 a month despite the fact that 49% of developers are still earning less than $1,000.
