In the wake of Apple’s move to Intel processors, I’ve just seen two striking endorsements of Apple. On the last page of the latest issue of Fortune, Stanley Bing describes how a Dell computer with a vast amount of important data was taken over by viruses until it was essentially destroyed and the data was lost. The last sentence:
I’m getting a Mac.
Unexpected!
And yesterday ABC News posted commentary on Mac’s move to Intel, from Michael S. Malone (a noted Apple booster), that includes this opinion:
The Apple II, after all, was the best computer of its era, a title usurped only by the Macintosh and its descendants. Apple also has always had the best Operating System software — a fact proven by Microsoft’s endless, and usually inferior, efforts to copy it.
It’s like, all of a sudden, it’s just common knowledge that Apple was always the greatly superior computer.
Maybe this move to Intel will work.
P.S. Robert X. Cringely thinks Intel’s going to buy Apple and take over the computer world.
