AMD in Apples?
The Taiwanese publication DigiTimes is reporting on rumors that a new AMD-based Apple notebook may be on the way.
According to the technology site, Taiwanese component makers are reporting an large increase in orders for capacitors for use in a new Apple laptop with AMD inside.
Resourceful hackers have already documented that Apple's operating system, OS X Tiger, is fully capable of running on AMD chips. But so far Apple's switch from PowerPC processors to the x86 architecture has been an exclusive switch to Intel.
The recent merge between AMD and long time Apple partner ATI might have brought AMD powered Apples closer, and AMD chief executive Hector Ruiz claimed, back in September, that Apple would eventually start using AMD microprocessors along with those from Intel.
