Re: FW: Best said reference yet [Re: Oh my....... Intel CPU's???]
I have been looking on intel site for the particular p4 that apple would be using, but searching even for just the word apple yields little. I was curious to know which particular pentium4 apple uses or will use. I have built several pentium 4 systems, one with dual processors, so spent a bit of time reading the intel specs for the 865PE and 875PE chipsets in the 478 pin config. Does anyone know what name the apple intel chip will go by, assuming it is a pentium4 ? Links are welcome.

There's no reason they're going to use some chip other than the P4 or one substantially like it. If they were, all this other work and shipping development systems with a P4 would be wasted.

If the problem is IBM's financial shuffling, then what kind of money does it take to buy out the chip-making division? Can supposedly cash-rich Apple do this? Dunno. I'll have my Compacts, my Modulars and G3/G4 Macs, and the memories. To not have any different computing products will be one of the saddest transitions I will ever have had to make. Then Intel, like Microsoft will hold monopolies on how we compute. When this list and the others in it's stable were in financial danger of disappearing, we coughed up money to keep it going. Wonder if all the Mac people were to buy stock in Apple if the capital gained would be enough to make that buy? Jeff G Facere Compositio Ex Congeries __ Discover Yahoo!
