Rumor: Apple could skip Intel chipsets for next MacBook
AppleInsider has reported that Apple just might skip Intel’s chipsets for their next generation MacBook model.
This is of course just a rumor.
Apple could use a product from another company. Or they just might use something designed internally.
Intel has done a commendable job with their mobile processors in the recent years. This was probably the major reason on why Apple switched from PowerPC platform to Intel processors.
Apple owns a chip company named P.A. Semi which they acquired just recently. However, they are said to be working on chips which would be used to power future generation of iPhones and iPods.
Another market rumor is that Apple might use glass touchpads in the next MacBook.

Excellent FUD article. I’m sure it was a cut/paste job straight from MS’s PR department.
Just reading the title, a person can easily be misled into believing Apple may not be using Intel CPU’s whereas the rumors are that they may not be using Intel’s chips that support the CPU.
