I agree, but at the same time I suggest doing this:
The Apple A4 chip should be standardized for all mobile platforms
(except laptops), while Apple should go back to the PowerPC, but have a
different name and a new generation, like the PowerPC G5 v2, or the
PowerPC G6, or the Core G6... I love the PowerPC platform and will never
give it up. I sorta refuse to buy an intel mac too.
Unfortunately, Motorola jettisoned their chip division. It was going by
the name "Freescale" but I haven't heard much recently. Also, at the
same time, the older employees were terminated (I have a friend who was
one of them) so who knows if the PPC could be updated.
It is Apple's "A" chips or AMD's chips that have the best bet of
supplanting Intel in Macs.
