Apple Was it Palol Rossetti that one said, "People in glass house shouldn't throw stones?" Push away the Intel this, the Pentium-M that, or perhaps the ability to use the Dual Core Pentium 4, Apple has a much bigger challenge ahead of them. For years, they have been throwing down the MHz myth and now? They are sleeping with the "enemy" according to PowerPC zealots.

And where was the PPC going? It isn't going anywhere. IBM has failed to produce. Apple is doing the right thing.

Well, the 234 million transistor Cell provides an order of magnitude more theoretical GFLOPS while drawing less power than the 230 million transistor Pentium D.

The real question for Apple is "Where is PPC going in the laptop department? Not anywhere near the Pentium M"
