Macintosh - Intel inside, but not outside
Apple announced the new MacBook Pro based on the Intel Yonah processor. I’m looking forward to getting one of these new laptops and selling crap left and right on eBay to finance one.
What I really admire about Apple, more-so His Steveness, is conviction to the brand. He caters to no one whether it’s winning a philosophical argument about iPods sold at Wal-Mart and more recently not putting “Intel Inside” stickers on Mac equipment.
Critics feel Jobs’ will eventually slip-up and release a ho-hum product. But who cares? Mac users have been strong supporters of the platform through the worst of days (*cough* John Scully *cough*) so what’s to worry?
Besides, we’ve already seen Windows Vista and it’s been found wanting.
