The only problem I see it causing is folks not checking the facts and
takng what they read on a blog as fact or possible fact. And not to
drag the topic around and kill it much more, I would say that not
only do I believe Apple wouldnt' drop the Intels at this point, that
if they were going to consider Sparc, it would be in their servers
and the like. I know some who will not buy anything Intel just
because they hate the company and why I'm not completely sure, but
the point is Apple made a good decision by going with the Intel
processors, as I said, it opens the doors to a number of
possibilities that was not available to them previously. I agree that
when posting articles or bits from a blog, the url needs to be
included. I really think folks need to step back, take a breath, and
think this through before they get all worried over something that
isn't likely to happen. Applying a little logical thought to the
situation will show you another side you didn't possibility consider
in a knee-jerk reaction.
One logical thought to consider is the amount of money Apple has
dumpped in R&D.

If an unsubstantiated rumor is enough to give one pause about a recent

enough consideration. Yes, the article is plainly a joke. But that
the story caused so much worry on this list? That is a sign of a
deeper problem!
