if a mac is “powered” by a chip…that means it doesnt own that chip. therefore if a xbox is powered by a chip that doesnt mean it owns that chip they are merely powered by a chip; made by IBM, one of the giants of old. Now if i opened up a xbox and saw an apple, i would one faint, then say its powered by apple. ---

nothing to get worked up about…It is not like you will see an apple sign in there. Guaranteed that Intel will make adjustments. It think more stuff like this should happen. Collab. and make the consumer happy. Like there are some things that apple should be incorporating. ---
