Apple With the announcement that Apple is switching to Intel, the computing world has been thrown a curve ball. Speculation will run rampant for the next year. We obviously won't know what's going to happen until it happens, but I see a bright future coming out of this. I see Apple with more headroom for the future to create better, faster designs. I see much more opportunity for the hacker community to work with this also.

i have a question

Since the new universal executable runs on both powerpc and intel, why doesn't apple just use both processors? Why abandon powerpc? Why not use the powerpc chip for some boxes and intel for other boxes? Does it just have to be one or the other?
