Report: Apple Switching to Intel Chips - Yahoo! News
Step 1 - Switch hardware to use Intel chips.
Step 2 - Make OS work on any Intel hardware.
Step 3 - Overthrow Microsoft.
Ok, maybe that last step is a bit of an overstatement. The transition is not much of a shock to me given they use Linux as they basis for OS X and all subsequent releases. The switch over to Intel is probably not going to a big deal.
Microsoft should at least keep an eye on this. Apple has had a long history of providing a good user experience. If they proceed as I think they will it will be interesting to see if Apple can maintain their great user experience on hardware they cannot control. If they can this could be what the Linux camp needs to make a move onto the desktop.
