IBM to Release 64-Bit, 1.8GHz Processor in 2003

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the zippiness dept.

Professor_Quail writes "A Forbes article supposed to be released tomorrow gives some details about the new PowerPC processor that IBM and Apple have been working together on; the chip is slated to be introduced at the end of next year. The introduction of this chip should put to rest any speculation that Apple is moving to an Intel platform."
