Intel Apple Laptop In January?
Citigroup analyst Richard Gardner claims that Apple is poised to release an Intel-based laptop as early as January. Additionally, Gardner forsees Apple becoming a $20 billion company in 2006.
It is not known if Gardner is looking at new information from Apple, or simply responding to recent rumors (1, 2) of Intel-based Apple hardware being ready for debut at MacWorld San Francisco.
Apple Computer could introduce its first laptop computers based on Intel chips as early as January, which, together with robust sales of video iPods, should drive earnings higher, Citigroup said Wednesday.

Big news media reporting on a Mac rumor? Hmm... It must be true then.
I'll possibly eat crow and say Apple will release an Intel PowerBook, and not the widely speculated iBook. Unconfirmed reports state Apple may or may not consolidate the two laptop lines into a single line. Stay tuned for more updates. :p

What does this even mean? I don't get how analysts can make arbitrary claims based on no information.

Lets hope Apple have crossed all the t's and dotted all the i's on the new hardware and software else it's going to be a PR 'mare.

Hopefully with Intel as a supplier, the InPowerBook will be available in January, not a tease as a few other products have been. Remember the G5's coming out in July and not becoming available into September? I like product announcements, but when you make a big fuss, make them available please!

"We are becoming more convinced that Apple will introduce its first Intel-based PowerBook at Macworld San Francisco,"

If the Intel processor is ready ( and Apple have had samples to play with in revised laptops ) , the software ready ( i.e., Apples consumer applications and OSX ) and Rosetta improved to support Altivec - why not? Why delay the Intel roll out?

If it's an Intel iBook replacement then it will surely overtake the PowerBook specs and performance, so let's hope its an Intel PowerBook (if it's true of course........)
