Cringely's idea

There have been lots of comments about Robert X. Cringely's audacious theory that Apple Computer's decision to use Intel processors is just a prelude to an Apple-Intel merger that could seriously hurt Microsoft.

My personal favorite is Daring Fireball's very appropriate headline, Together We Can Rule the Galaxy. The analysis that comes after it is worth reading, too.

The New York Times' John Markoff also write a good story on What's Really Behind the Apple-Intel Alliance.
