More Affordable Apple Computers?

Recently in the news, information has been released that Apple plans on switching its processors from IBM to Intel. For consumers this is good news. Hopefully, by switching processors, Apple will be able to drop the price of their high priced computers and become competitive with companies like Dell.
I am not much of a computer wiz by no means, but I do know that Apple's Macintosh operating system is not only more stable but is also more user friendly. If the price of Apple computers comes down, Apple can hopefully gain a large percentage of the market share.
This could be the beginning of a comeback for Apple.

    OK...so I don't really have any comment to make about your blog, but I was just browsing and saw that you were from Michigan too. So I just wanted to leave you a comment to say hi and ask how you enjoyed our tornadoes the other day?

    You can buy a Mini Mac for $400 now... that's pretty cheap if you ask me! Especially since the OS is head and shoulders above anything you'll get on a PC.

    Good to know. I bought into the hype and bought a Dell laptop piece of junk. My mother board crashed less than one year and one week after I purchased it!!!

    Replacing a motherboard that crashes less than seven days after one year warranty expires...$600

    Never buying Dell again, and talking to American technical support representatives...PRICELESS

    Good for apple.
    I'm not sure the whole AMD vs Intel argument holds any water with me. Steve Jobs just went with the vendor that has the best "long term" track record in making these things.

    Good on him i say...
    Gonna start saving now!
