Intel PowerBook Rumor Mill

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the only-a-matter-of-time dept.

catdriver writes "AppleInsider has an article guessing about Apple's new Intel portable offerings in early 2006. 'With the initiation of the Intel Power Mac project last month, all five of Apple's Intel Macintosh projects are now said to be underway and moving at an exhaustive, yet fruitful pace. It should come as no surprise that Apple chief executive Steve Jobs is reportedly leading the charge, with his heart set on making 2006 the next 1984.' With Mac OS X for x86 now catching up to its PPC sibling, is Apple ready to take the plunge?"

    Could this possibly be the reason that we have no G5 Powerbooks yet?

    IIRC, Apple's been working on Macintels and OS X86 for years now. They just managed to keep it really, really quiet.
