It looks like they will have Intel create a chip for them and work around that. So that means that it may not even be a fully x86 based CPU which is created for the new Apples.

Of course they are focusing on mass market easy-to-use devices but that is just a way of taking less risks to strenghten the architecture think about it guigui de nice hey pple,

Apple's has dramatically increased the market value of the stock since they realized they are NOT a computer company but a CONSUMER ELECTRONICS company that will make more money by focusing on what people do with their products, not focusing on what processor sits in the box... as long as the performance continues to increase Apple loyalists will buy and more Wintel slaves will convert - they key is 1) ease of use 2) convenience 3) performance They are still a computer company, just one that is leveraging out of the HW business… unless they can use HW design to differentiate their products (see iPod success) - their software solutions are so solid that they (rightly so) should be focused AWAY from the innards that no one really cares about except for the performance which I believe Intel will be well suited to meet the demands… Apple’s has dramatically increased the market value of the stock since they realized they are NOT a computer company but a CONSUMER ELECTRONICS company that will make more money by focusing on what people do with their products, not focusing on what processor sits in the box… as long as the performance continues to increase Apple loyalists will buy and more Wintel slaves will convert - they key is 1) ease of use 2) convenience 3) performance

The iPod is a computer. Apple will continue to add features to the iPod, and eventually it will be all you need. It will have the OS on it, with a mini wireless module built into it. Once wi-fi max really takes off you'll be able to use your iPod to check email and get driving direction, etc. Then when you get home, just set it in your dock and it will display through your monitor and be controlled through your bluetooth, wireless keyboard and mouse. Apple's way ahead on this obvious next move for computing. Apple is and will always be a computer company; they’re just forward-thinking. The iPod is a computer.
