The *person* that discerns that Intel is providing PPC 970s to Apple must be the same person who screwed up the other night with Apple's website...

...and is now looking for another job.

Moreover, the article itself, in English, says nothing about Intel.

Funny, but I doubt the dorks who wrote the article know Al Gore, let alone that he invented the internet. They probably think Intel invented that too. After all the Pentium III made it faster.
