MacBook sounds too silly... Do you want some fries with your McBook?

Apple should correct this text, this may be the first 65nm CPU in a Mac, but written like this it is misleading.

Sigh...

Misleading perhaps, but this move is great for Apple.

Apple Shares Hit Record High on Intel News

Jobs said its entire Mac line will be converted to Intel by the end of 2006.:thumbsup:

How is it wrong? Yonah taped out a month before Cedarmill and booted first.

Resulting in transistors so small, you could fit a hundred inside a single human cell

It doesn't matter if it's true. Steve Jobs said it, the Mac faithful will believe it.

Actually, you people don't know if it is true or not.

Pressler was the first 65nm chip launched. It does not mean it was the first chip produced using 65nm. Yonah, although launched after, could've been produced first internally.

Jobs has the RDF (reality distortion field) working overtime. Anyways, marketing speak. Take it with a grain of salt. It's not as bad as some of the crap coming out of other large corporations but it's certainly far away from the best. Macbook does sound silly though and I think they should have kept the Powerbook name. As always, I think Apple's computers are rooted in their OS. And what's with the Macinteltosh moniker used by Inquirer? Mactel is what most people use.

Yeah... what they said.

I went to CES last week with a friend who works for Intel. He claimed that Yonah could have shipped earlier than it did, but that the timing of the January release was better for Intel's purposes. This may be what the claim on the Apple site is alluding to. Unless someone here has some inside knowledge the rest of us aren't aware of, I don't think there is much merit in attacking the credibility of Apple's statement.

We've had Yonah for a month, but we finally got a motherboard that it'll work in.

Feasible and evidenced from multiple sources that Yonah has been around a while.
