Star Apple's Glass House
Linked by David W. Kuhn on Fri 10th Jun 2005 16:34 UTC
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 less than 1% of Apple's Consumers

Would even remember Apple saying anything about the mhz myth.

I bought a Mac for OS X and I could give a rats arse about what hardware it ran on. If PearPC did a good job I'd be running it on a Intel platform.


Fact is that only the fanbois will remember or care about the PowerPC chip being dumped. Apple is being treated like a 2nd class customer and Intell will treat them as a first class customer. IBM cant fill the demand due to fab space being used for console chips, Intel has fabs that are not running at 100% capacity and would love the extra business.
