Apple May be Intel Show Pony 481
Robert writes "Computer
Business Review reports that the implications of Apple dropping IBM as its chip vendor
in favor of Intel, announced earlier this week, will straddle the broader computing
landscape. Apple stands to gain a competitive edge by partnering with Intel because
it will have access to slightly cheaper stuff."

That's it, I'm starting work on "The Leopard Post" [wikipedia.org]. Where OS X requires the root password each time MOV EAX EBX occurs. Where the Finder realizes it's lost. Where Job Steves outsources the BSOD code to Gill Bates. And where Clippy finally comes to OS X.
Apple Inside. Where do you want to think different today?

Apple = MS (Score:2, Funny)
I heard it here that some people thought Apple will have problems if it is not a simple matter to install MacOS X on your regular 'wintel' hardware. Some people suggested that even for the developer release you should be able to start some kind of application that runs MacOS X inside Windows. Now this got me thinking again about a crazy thought, mainly, what if Apple and MS are in the same boat and MacOS X is an upgrade path for Windows. Since we know that Apple has experience in helping users transition from non-Unix OS to a Unix based one it sounds plausible.
So, Apple + MS + Longhorn = MacOS X

So, uh, the implications start subtle but end by straddling, somehow putting their metaphorical legs on either side of a landscape? And who knew Intel was only announced earlier this week?
Jeez.
