Apple's Processor Timeline

Robert Khoo

Does anyone know how long the delay from PC Manufacturers adoption to Apple adoption is on processors? For instance, I'm seeing PC manufacturers start to adopt the i3/i5/i7 series, and I'm curious how long it will be until I start seeing these in Apple's Machines (and whether to wait or not).

Thanks.

It's always best to wait to buy Apple products unti they roll out the new revisions. Fortunately, they have a specific time each year for doing so.
If you really want one of those chips in a Macbook, your best bet is to wait until early summer to see what the spec changes are.
