Aptel Confirmed

from the move-along-now... dept

Right. As expected, Apple has confirmed the move to Intel by "this time next year." If you haven't been drowned in analysis over this decision already on other sites, you probably don't want to see any more here, so we'll just let this one slide by and leave the speculating to everyone else.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Aptel != Apple

    I think you meant Apple in the subject of the story.

    Aptel... a bad joke Apple + Intel = Aptel, a la Wintel. Would Mactel have worked better?

    Sorry! I was just browsing down thru and saw the title again and suddenly got it even before I read your comment. Mactel prob would have worked better because Aptel is only a single letter different than Apple and the brain (mine at least) screams typo and goes no further down that path when it see it.
