Macs aren't a huge percent of Intel's processor business. It's a big enough percent that they would miss it, but Apple's desktop and portable market share is still small. And then there are servers.
- kalleboo 8y agoTrue, but Apple releasing a truly desktop-class ARM into a MacBook might finally kick Qualcomm and PC laptop manufacturers into gear to releasing something that doesn't suck (like when Apple released a 64-bit ARM CPU and Qualcomm first made fun of it then quickly released their own)
- ajross 8y agoMacs are even a significant percent of Apple's processor business.
- danpalmer 8y agoThis is true, however Apple are probably the single most visible sales channel for Intel processors in the eyes of consumers. I’d expect this to have a much bigger impact in the markets because of the publicity of the change more than anything else.
