Intel and Apple dealings

Why go from bad to worse
by Walter Wege - 6/15/05 4:46 AM In reply to: POLL: What does Apple's switch mean to you? by tmoynihanApple has a very big percent users (4 or 5). I'm not an Apple user but I like the Motorola consept. It's straight down to basic's, you load a program into memory and execute it from it's possition. Intel swaps program chunks back and forth. That's why PC's have so many crashes. The swapping goes to h..l and it's timeconsuming too. Apple stay where you are and go for it.
Perhaps Intel Chips Might Lead to Lower Prices?
by lodave - 6/15/05 3:20 PM In reply to: POLL: What does Apple's switch mean to you? by tmoynihanThe switch is meaningless as I can't afford a G5 or Powerbook anyway, particularly in view that I can get far more bang for the buck in the competitive platform.
Personally I think it sad that Jobs didn't opt for AMD, another perennial underdog, but one which seems to be leading INTEL in both innovation and actual performance.
quick thought
