    I read this article yesterday, and laughed quite a bit at the resulting comments from slashdotters. Examples:

    I choose option 3: confusion.

    It was an entretaining read, in a way, but I kept expecting Jobs to slay at least one dragon before the article was over...

    And if it does happen anyway, it'll be that much more entertaining.

    If it does happen, Intel is going to get a huge speed boost, since Apple has been using IBMs PPC dual core for about 4 years now... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Quad core? (Two processors, dual core)
