"According to eWeek, IBM has entered into an agreement with Infineon Technologies AG and Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing in efforts to reach 65-nm and later, 45-nm chips on 300-mm silicon wafers"
Its a spinoff from Siemens, a German multinational.
In the other direction but still costs are spiraling up, to many hands in the pie !!!
Just try, to talk Adobe and Quark into developing two Mac versions of their apps.
Quote from Adobe: ?We think this is a really smart move on Apple?s part and plan to create future versions of our Creative Suite for Macintosh that support both PowerPC and Intel processors,? said Bruce Chizen, CEO of Adobe.
It looks like Steve already did the talking, and that's good. The only thing that will keep sales of PPC Macs from taking a nose dive is assurance that both versions of Applications will be available for a VERY long time. Like I said, a DVD has enough capacity for two versions of most applications.
Is this some promising new technology from Intel? I'm sure I have lots to learn about the Intel roadmap, having never paid much attention.
They're Intel's low power laptop chips, part of the centrino platform. They really are quite brilliant and given they will probably be the basis for Intel's replacement for the PIV I'm actually pretty pleased. Late 2006 Intel should be well and truly recovered from its current misstep so isn't a bad time for Apple to be jumping on board.
Pentium Ms really can have some impressive performance characteristics.

Agreed. I can't think of a compelling reason for the switch.
I can, Pentium M. There's nothing to compete with it on the PowerPC side. Hell there's nothing to compete with it on the x86 side!

Oh, c'mon. It was a joke. Get it? If you had been earlier, it wouldn't have been 30 minutes to keynote? You were spot on at 12:30.
By the way, I'm hoping you were joking too.
I just got back here after trying all day
I was joking if you were joking.

The M's are pretty good. Those and the new D series.
