  • Highly suspect benchmarks stoke rumors of Apple-designed ARM chips for Mac

    It's exciting to imagine a world where desktops and laptops follow iPhones on the hardware upgrade cycle. Even if the upgrades for non-phones were every 2 years, consistently, that would be better than some of the huge delays that occur now. Modular designs where components could receive updates for a certain time would be helpful in extending the usefulness of our hardware. I can think of one particular instance where Intel really put the screws to Apple: my MacBook was maxed out at 16GB ram and really needed 32 for opening up browsers with dozens of tabs. From what I understand, Intel's chip limited Apple on that front.
    You need to pull your head out of the sand. Everything you mentioned is apple's doing, not Intel's.  If you want hardware that is regularly updated, modular, and allows expansion, buy a Dell, hp, Lenovo, etc.  And if you like os x that much you can run it in a vm :)
