Apple as Media Platform Company
Alan Wexelblat speculates about one strategic possibility for Apple's move to Intel chips (A Copyfighter's View of the Apple Move to Intel).
Apple's switch in hardware platforms is about the transformation of Apple into a media company. It will probably still make hardware, and it will probably still dominate certain niche markets, but those markets will be ones that matter in Hollywood, like digital editing.
Seems plausible, though I would say media
platform company, and I'm not sure that it drove the switch to Intel. Still, interesting ideas. See also,
