Still can't figure this out...Surely Intel knows that Apple isn't putting a dent in its x86 CPU sales! What's all the angst about Crapple? Sounds like some kind of childish, venomous revenge because Apple dropped them. AMD is eating Intel alive--and they talk about Apple, as if Mac users have ever cared about what CPU is in their Macs...😉 It's really hilarious to think back on how Jobs ran Intel CPUs down at every turn--prior to moving Apple to the Intel CPUs he had talked trash about for years...! I really do think that Intel is sorely pissed at the resources they consumed to keep Apple happy, and then they got jilted and dumped...😉 Intel has many, many internal management problems, obviously.

Well lets be honest. Intel has always been a childish bully. BUT so has Apple. It was only a matter of time before these two had their playground rumble.

Its called marketing. Charlie has a pretty good take of this on Twitter, I got half a chuckle seeing they got the old Apple guy to do this



Humorous youttube comments as well. Brand loyalty is a strange religion.

An act of intolerable act of applestasy!

Same old Intel, reusing old tech (actors too)

It's just advertising. And it's working. It got published on a news site and you saw it.

I'm pretty sure Justin Long is a "I like getting paid to be an actor in commercials" guy.
