Moving to Intel by 2007 is true

Graeme,
Given one of the key reasons for Apple’s decision is the lack of G5 laptop, they may be one of the early (2006) MacIntels. So how might this affect people who use FCP on laptops (those remote edit sessions) or ProTools?
Yea, it’s speculation but as you’ve seen from my posts elsewhere, it has the potential to pit us with some tough purchase decisions and/or some serious productivity bumps.

That’s just so tough to tell until some of the new machines are announced. I’m guessing that there’s going to be probably new G5 powermacs / iMacs before they start to swap over to Macintel, but the powerbooks / iBooks might swap straight over. As to when this will happen, hopefully sooner than later.

[MitchJi] “I think in the long run the move to Intel chips will be good for Mac users because Intel can afford to pour a lot more into R & D than IBM can afford to spend on PowerPC developm”
If you all remember only one thing from this monster thread, this is it.

Just checked out that link, but they didn’t have anything available. Do you have some secret connection, or did they just run out in 1 day?
