Comment Apple did the Right thing (Score 1) 533
Apple did the right thing to switch - IBM told Intel and AMD how they did it now. I mean, they practically told the world. It won't be too long before Intel and AMD follow suit with their already low power consuming chips...
And, if things do look like IBM is the upper hand, Apple has cross platform capabilites now, becuase of the switch. So they could offer both if they wanted to for a while, and maybe switch back. But, in the end it looks like Apple made the better long term decision. Even if you think about it the only competitor is The Chip which actually allows for mulitple different cores to be on one processor.
