I would think totally separate processes, so probably not, but I was just wondering. The only thing I can think of is maybe IBM would take a hit on R&D costs on a go-forward basis, since they would have a smaller semiconductor business to spread costs around, but that's all I can imagine at the moment.

Intel's future processors must be heavily multi-core and very, very cool.
I hope it does away with the 'the' in front of 'Cell'. 8)ralexand said:What effect will Apples choice to go Intel have on the cell?

Just for the record up until Prescott (and to some degree Wilamette) Intel has been historicaly better in the power consumption realm.

Yup, just imagine a multi-core dothan with a beefed up FPU, and you have the whole future line of Intel desktop processors.
