Macintel

So Jobs announced yesterday that Apple will be switching to Intel chips starting in June 2006 and completing the transition in 2007, proving a ton of analysts wrong and causing the heads of Mac fanboys across the globe to explode. News and rumor sites are all atwitter about what this will mean for the future of the Macintosh--I really don't get it. IBM obviously wasn't cutting it, and Intel's mobile chips blow Freescale out of the water. Soon the days of Motorola/IBM yield problems will be but a distant memory, and Powerbooks will be using low power dual core chips. Why so sad?

In other news my brother sent me seasons 1 & 2 of Danger Mouse on DVD. Oose!
