Steve Jobs is scared of the slowness of the IBM.....but now no one will buy the Apple machines for a couple of years (until the Intel-Mac) comes out! How's the company going to survive? On ipod only?

So sad man...the end of PPC.

What's the new machine going to be named? Macintel? InteMac?

I will stick with my G5 until the dust settles.

Not really. Windows PC has been using Intel/AMD for years now and it would not change at all. The big change is Mac used to boast about the PPC on the speed compare to Intel/AMD. This move by Steve Jobs is a direct challenge to Microsoft. Now they are using the same hardware (more or less), the competition would be on the platform (the software, namely the OS).

Even with the reported bugs out there, Tiger (the new OS) is still very good as a OS. If Longhorn does measure up to Tiger....Microsoft is in big trouble...not because people would switch to Mac, but the software developers could move away.
