It's certainly possible that the new intels have bugs, but I'd tend
to doubt it. It's not like they're using brand-new chips, the intel
chips have been in pcs for years. Any bugs have been worked out by
now I'd think. Now, if you're talking about the dual core intel
chips, then there's likely to be bugs, but if there are, they're not
cropping up yet. Remember, thhese computers have been in the testing
phase for nearly a year. Last June apple started their transition to
the intel chips, and apple developers could join a program to borrow
an intel based mac not too many months ago, (say September or October
if memory serves) so there has certainly been adequate testing of the
new cpus. I'd say they're fairly stable.

Hi guys
Is it possible for the new intel computers to have bugs in them in
the first models. You know, sometimes when something new comes
out, they have to get the production line adjusted, adn there are
occasionally a few rejects that come out.
