Apple on Intel?

ArsTechcnica and News.com are both discussing the possibility of Apple making an Intel announcement come WWDC on Monday.

I’ve only given it a bit of thought, but I find the proespect incedibly exciting. Think about it for a second (of course not counting the work required to port the OS or applications) and you’ll likely agree it would be an excellent move. For starters, the Centrino platform would enable a significant boost to both mobile and small form factor systems allowing for integrated wireless and AV capabilties right in the box. The servers could be 64 Bit right away (Itanium2) and Enterprise customers would be more likely to adopt Macs on for end users knowing there would be no issues running things as the hardware would all integrate with existing systems.

Since it’s all just speculation at this point, there’s no way to really understand the possibilities, but purely from a hardware view, it would be very good direction.
