Unfortunately, folks like rumors, they tend to lean towards
the preface of "I know a xxx insider". Regardless of whether you
picked up on the joke aspect of the entry, simple logic should
dictate that such a move by Apple would make no sense in the overall
picture. It really comes down to not believing anything until you
see official word of it.

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
or future purchase, obviously the buying decision has not been given
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!
