Report: Apple Switching to Intel Chips
We’ve seen the rumors, now AP is reporting this as well.
"A stormy, decade-long relationship between Apple Computer Inc. and IBM is over, according to published reports. Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ is expected to announce Monday morning at the company’s software developers conference in San Francisco that Apple will discontinue using microprocessor chips made by IBM in favor of Intel chips, according to CNET Networks Inc.’s News.com and The Wall Street Journal.
For years, rumors of Apple’s wish to jump to Intel have been circulating. But two weeks ago, analysts were skeptical when The Wall Street Journal reported that Intel and Apple were in negotiations."
I am not a fan of Apple products at all, but this is good news for Intel backers.
