: Just to add the necessary scepticism to the debate, keep in mind that the OS
: X on Intel rumour comes up every 6 months or so. It could be that Apple
: was seriously considering moving to x86 when they finally got fed up with
: Motorola's chip production problems, but went with IBM at the last minute.
: Anyone remember that leaked internal IBM memo which crowed about them
This blog does put out some rather good reasoning for Apple moving to Intel... IMAO such a move would still suck major ass, the transition from MacOS9 to X was not without a lot of headache for users and developers. This would not be any different.
: getting the G5 into Macs rather than an Intel chip? That probably
: indicated that Apple made a decision between IBM and Intel back before the
: G5 PMac came out, so maybe the WSJ caught some belated wind of that. Or
: they accidentally stepped into a time warp. :)
: As far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to start believing this rumour until
: Apple announces that they're moving to Intel. It's been around way too
: long for it to suddenly start coming true tomorrow without a real
: provocation. Sure, IBM hasn't delivered on the 3GHz G5 yet (even though
: that's what's running the Xbox 2pi, isn't it?!), but there hasn't been
: anything nearly as bad as the problems Motorola dished out before Apple
: dumped them.
