We all know by now that Apple has switched from using IBM's PowerPC processor in favour of Intel's. My question is why haven't they switched to AMD, instead? Not only does it offer more of what they claim to look for in another processor (performance per Watts) than Intel but it's also (from what I've heard) more suited to a micro-kernel architecture than the Pentiums.
Perhaps
skaven can shed some light on this subject since he's a self-professed employee of the company!
Why didn't Apple go with AMD?
Thanks!
