Apple Putting Intel Inside
Posted by John Yunker
According to CNET News, Apple will be announcing a migration to Intel chips on Monday.
And it looks like they'll be starting with the low-end computers first, gradually working their way up to the high-end Macs.
So it looks like this move was all about the chips and not about WiMAX, as I speculated. Now that doesn't mean that we won't see Intel's wireless strategy change over the next few years. For instance, will Centrino be used in the Mac Minis? If so, where does this leave Apple's Airport gear?
As for WiMAX, I guess we'll see how this IntelApple marriage progresses. I still think something is going to happen along these lines.
PS: Here is the Reuters article.
