Transition!

In my previous post a lot was said in comments abt the laptops & Apple. Here comes one of the biggest news for the PC industry, which all of us surely can't afford to miss and its that Apple dumps IBM for transition of all of its Macs to Intel microprocessors by the end of 2007.

I have taken a portion of the article... (Read the whole story its worth it!)
....The move to x86 should make porting more software even easier. Furthermore, such ported software will benefit from many processor-dependent enhancements, and so should be quicker. And that’s never a bad thing.
So…Whilst it’ll be interesting to see the effect that this has on Apple’s profits this year (especially at a time when iPod demand is flat or falling), the move is certainly good for the future, and in time, will likely really make for decent competition with Microsoft’s Windows hegemony.
So, all of us who love the features of Mac, will love to see it speeding thru transition...but if u r planning to buy a Mac hold on to decide whether u r going to buy a PowerPC based system or will wait until MAc switches gears?
