  Intel to buy Apple?
Time: 10:28 EST/15:28 GMT | News Source: Macworld | Posted By: Byron Hinson

The real reason why Apple has decided to use Intel chips is that Intel intends to buy Apple and take on Microsoft, according to Accidental Empires author and InfoWorld columnist Robert X. Cringely. Before arriving at that theory Cringely, who boasts "twenty years in and around the PC business", looks at, and disqualifies, a number of potential reasons for Apple's move to Intel chips. He also indicates that there are a number of reason that suggest there is more to the Intel chip switch than Apple CEO Steve Jobs is letting on in a very enlightening and informative article.

I think what's most exciting about this is getting to see what Intel technology can actually do. I find it unlikely that Dell's implementation is the bleeding edge of what is possible.

I don't see why there would be "lawsuits galore." That comment doesn't make much sense. Let's dismiss it. Phew.

MrRoper... the market leader of cpus buying apple would definitely bring the feds into the picture. No doubt about it. Hell, those regulators go at much less likely targets every other day.

MrRoper: Nice dig at Dell. Dell=bottom edge technology.

Dell is basically an Intel reference platform. Besides that, there are many other implementations in the marketplace that are available that go beyond the reference, but with gains that largely only matter to enthusiests. The notion that an Apple/Intel alliance would bring about some Intel technological breakthrough that otherwise wouldn't be available is laughable. Apple uses the same OEMs that Dell and other PC vendors/IHVs do for all of their hardware. Besides possibly the BIOS, the Intel Macs will likely largely mirror the Intel reference designs as well. There may be slight differences, but overall nothing revolutionary, and nothing other OEMs in the market couldn't match. Anything too different would just add to costs anyway. Most of the platform hardware innovation Apple has taken advantage of over the years was engineered by companies in the PC industry like Intel, AMD, Compaq, HP, and Microsoft, etc.. If anything, going to Intel should make it easier for Apple to keep parity w/ PC vendors in terms of interconnect standards. They've consistently been behind PC vendors in this area on their PPC platforms. Using a largely reference architecture gets them that support basically for free.

I kind of wondered this myself, actually--it probably wouldn't be that hard to have a fairly seamless emulator for Windows apps, which could make Apple a bigger threat to Microsoft. But there are lots of problems with this scenario--hardware/drivers would be chief among them, although that's not much different than switching to a new version of Windows (I'm thinking 98 to XP, for example). Replacing systems management packages would be another (in business). And despite the supposed better security of the Mac, I doubt many businesses--or many end-users, for that matter--would consider running any desktop without anti-virus software or the ability to lock down the desktop. And if many people did switch to the Mac, it wouldn't be long before the virus writers would target the Mac platform.

It's conceivable, but it's not really that great below the surface. Also, I think the Mac fan base would feel a bit betrayed to see their beloved platform sold to the corporate-drone "enemy" perception of Intel, though they may actually have the chance to see the Mac take on the kind of market share they always seem to say they want (but in reality probably don't want). But would Jobs care if they're replaced by millions of former Windows users? I wouldn't bet on it.
