They already did all the ground work when they forked OSX into iOS, and they're notoriously paranoid about keep their options open. I bet you they already have those prototypes lying around – but the economics won't make sense for another five years.
- wavephorm 15y agoNo way it'll take 5 years to move to ARM. I bet we'll see ARM Macbook Airs by the end of next year. Here's what I think will happen - the Macbook Pro line will be slimmed down to Air specs, the Air that exists today gets discontinued to make way for an all-ARM version. The Air brand will be the ARM laptop line, the Macbook Pro's will be x86 for a few years before they too switch.
