in Apple, Carlos Icaza, Thoughts

Called it.

If true, and I think it will happen, as it is only a matter of time.

In an article published on Informationweek 03.23.11, I stated that Apple will eventually replace Intel chips with its own A5 Chips (ARM). (ok the A5 is the A6 and is based on ARM architecture)

“Carlos Icaza, …, believes Apple is preparing for a transition to ARM chips, particularly given Apple’s acquisition of chip maker Intrinsity last year. “We could actually start seeing the lower end MacBook models and the MacBook Air running A5 chips instead of Intel chips,” he said. 

Today, November 5th, 2012, TechCrunch reports that Apple is looking into switching from Intel to its own ARM chip sets.
