Apple snubs Intel

MacBook not Montevina

THE MOST TRUE AND HOLY Apple religion has decided that Intel's Montevina shall be excommunicated from the next version of the MacBook.

According to Apple Insider, Cupertino could be using a chipset from a different company – or even an internally developed one – in the next iteration of the MacBook, which should appear in the next six or eight weeks.

Apple Messiah, Steve Jobs, who has been taking time off from performing his incredible shrinking miracle, has decided that while Intel's mobile Centrino chipsets have been pleasing in his sight, the Montevina version has fallen from grace.

Apple sauces say he things that Chipzilla's attempts at integrated graphics chipsets on Montevina are not as good as they should be.

The question is, what would Jobs' Mob be considering worthy to stick under the bonnet of its latest box of joy.

Apple Insider thinks the fruit-themed toymaker might have hatched a deal with AMD or Via for the new chipsets.
