What's an Intel Chip doing in a Mac?

Finally we have waited long enough. Apple has just released its latest notebook continuing the success of the previous PowerBook G4. The rumours about Intel Inside in Apple finally becoming a reality. Strangely no "Intel Inside" logo. However with its latest Dual Core Intel Engine, Apple has once again gone over its competitors limit.
The new Machines powered by the Intel Processor is the New Imac and the Powerbook G4 has finally retired and Apple came up with a new name, "MacBook Pro".
There are no significant changes in design for these two new machines. However for MacBook Pro, there are some additional features added. After the New Imac was embedded with ISight, now we can also see a small aperture on top of the MacBook screen. Its amazing how Apple can integrate ISight into the thin screen. With this, everything is built in in, from the latest processor, faster Memory, Video Card, Superdrive, connectivity (Airport WiFi, Bluetooth 2, USB2, FireWire), Illuminated Keyboard, basically everything you need is inside this beautiful Machine.
Currently only two variant of the new MacBook Pro and both have 15 Inch screen. Still waiting for the 12 Inch and 17 Inch variant. If the PowerBook changes name to MacBook Pro, I guess we are going to see a new white edition of this Intel Inside notebook. If we see from the name MacBook Pro, we can easily guess the new IBook will change name to MacBook. We'll just see...
Another Great Job from Apple. Bravo
