IBM... hello... is this thing on?
Apple's had dual (and quad) core PowerPC silicon since the late
nineties. They just don't actually put them into machines outside
Apple's R&D labs. I can't imagine they'd be easier to manufacture
than the single core CPUs, and IBM already has enough problems
supplying those!
Which is going to be further compounded by the fact that IBM is now
producing the CPU for the new XBox, the new Nintendo console and the
PlayStation 3.
If Apple thought they had supply problems before, just give it six
months!
