Apple bought a few companys with the technology and IP to build their own version of an ARM chip. Apple just licenseed the ARM instruction set, and taped out their own specialty ARM core wilh an Imagination Technologies GPU! Come on power users, if you need an Apple laptop to have more CPU or GPU power
just buy an external Thunderbolt PCI over thunderbolt connector an plug a more powerful CPU or GPU into your Apple Laptop! I am sure in the future If Apple switches to ARM 64 Apple will probably have a very good graphics processor on it! And if the ARM chip does not have enough horse power just get a thunderbolt expansion box and put a desktop graphics processor in it or an extra CPU, and be good to go!
Intel is trying ot charge too much for it's CPUs, so do not expect Apple to pay, Yes I would rather Apple go to AMD, but give up on Uncle Sam ever letting Apple or any other major player get AMD, it will not happen for antitrust reasons! AMD will probably be bought up by one of those Huge private equity firms, like the one that bought Chrysler, This equity firm will take AMD private and invest the money, long term, that is needed to keep AMD in business, AMD's IP is to valuable as a whole for AMD to be split up! AMD is also beginning to work om ARM designs for APU built around ARM and AMD graphics! P.S. one of tha companys tha Apple bought had some very good Power PC designs, which Apple now owns, Apple has been smartly buying a whole $hit Load on IP pver the past few years!
