<p>Some people are going to be very surprised when Apple announces the price of new ARM Macs later in the year. I personally believe they will be quite aggressive, if nothing else just to help jumpstart the transition away from Intel. They should have plenty of margin to play with having cut Intel out of the process.</p><p><br></p><p>Whether performance will matchup what some are speculating on Twitter based will be possible, based mainly around how solid the dev machines reportedly are, well that's another question entirely. The bottom line is though – I trust they will have a product that will run cooler, longer, and comfortably meet the needs of many, many computer users from day one.</p><p><br></p><p>I wish PC OEMs the very best of luck competing with Intel as their partner in the medium to longer term.</p>
