Buying Appel means you will get Intel CPUs early

tgdaily.com — Yup, that's right. Intel today launched new iMacs with Intel Montevina Core 2 Duo CPUs. Not that I am jealous, but it's time to look more seriously at a Mac.

    • Jo9100, on 04/28/2008, -0/+11From description: "Yup, that's right."
    • Dokument, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2its the upper class version of apple.
    • dullnation, on 04/28/2008, -0/+0Jaime appel Apple.
    • KibibyteBrain, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Watch out before buying a Mac that has "Appel" printed on it. Something tells me that thing came from the wrong end of China...
    • PeterNorton, on 04/28/2008, -0/+0Yes, I know and I am terribly sorry for the spelling :-)
  • rickcarson, on 04/28/2008, -20/+7OMG a spelling mistake on teh intarwebs! Shock! Horror!

    Frankly, I give him a free pass on the whole spelling/grammar nazi thing just for managing to put it in the right topic, something that continues to elude the geniuses debating US politics...

    Where am I at 3am? Lying awake in terror that the people choosing the next leader of the world's most powerful (and aggressive) nation are not competent even to use a drop down combo box.
    • xsilence, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2^^ I'm with stupid ^^
      Seriously, anyone could have made that mistake.
    • MacTyler, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1you forgot /end rant
    • jaalin, on 04/28/2008, -1/+0normally i'd agree with you, but
      1. it's APPLE - yes, harder to spell than mac, but it's like misspelling 'nike' ... u just don't do it
      2. it's digg, one of the front lines in the endless struggle between mac and pc
      3. if i wasn't gonna buy a mac before, why the f would i want to buy it with an updated processor?
      4. and now the site is down, double fail
      • enclaved, on 04/28/2008, -0/+11. 'U' shutup.
        2. what
        3. because it's faster now and maybe you didn't buy it because it wasn't fast enough?
        4. shutup.
    • KibibyteBrain, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Yeah, if it was merely a comment on digg or a post on a board, I'd agree. But its the headline of a news story submission. Its a slightly bigger deal where a limited degree of editorial competence is demanded. Maybe not Ph.D. in Literature grade perfect grammar, but spelling the name of the most important players involved in the story right is probably up on the priority list for a digg submission.
  • gizzymo, on 04/28/2008, -0/+9"Intel launched new iMacs...", interesting development!
  • yhack001, on 04/28/2008, -1/+6When I go to the shops, the first thing I look for is appels
  • diulei, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1But isn't this usually not the case? If I recall correctly, Penryn and Santa Rosa chips made it into Macs a lot later than the rest of the industry. Or am I wrong?
  • speel, on 04/28/2008, -5/+4Here comes the grammatical comments!
    • serif69, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2Here come* the grammatical comments!

      *Fixed that misuse of a plural for you.
      • TheUnlearn, on 04/28/2008, -1/+0add that to the fact that he's 6 hours late.
  • jimthenglishman, on 04/28/2008, -1/+9intel launched new imacs?
    intel owns apple now?
  • xenex11, on 04/28/2008, -6/+6Appels is for dumb peeple
  • stinkingfish, on 04/28/2008, -4/+2Ha, people taking mac's seriously.
  • xkorbin, on 04/28/2008, -0/+6Dugg for misspelling of Apple.
  • OGla, on 04/28/2008, -0/+7I have an Appel MacBook Porn
  • deezp1, on 04/28/2008, -2/+3I Can haz Appel?
  • kyouteki, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2As far as the Intel chips go, they are modest improvements at best. I don't think anyone will be pained waiting just a tiny bit longer for the Montevina chips to hit retail.
  • shervin123, on 04/28/2008, -3/+1Who gives a *****? We can all wait.
  • glowfood, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1How about putting Intel Quads in iMacs? Then the price would seem worthy of a purchase.

  • punkcat, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1well even besides the spelling mistake the headline doesn't make sense.
    i assume they are using a new chip, and buying an imac means you will get that particular CPU before you could in pc box.
  • rhodesman, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1I can spelz Appel right?
  • schrutefan, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1In this case it doesn't really apply... it's a laptop processor. Are you going to carry around an iMac?
  • sethkinast, on 04/28/2008, -0/+3How in the world did this frontpage with "Appel" and iMacs by Intel?
  • SebHughes, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Ah dammit I just got a 24" iMac in Jan, should have waited :(
  • burrgrinder, on 04/28/2008, -0/+0Buried for the submitter's complete butchering of just about everything.
  • forceuser, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1*insert comment about grammar here*
  • axiomo, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Potatoe
  • Klak, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1je m'Appel klak
  • ThinkFr33ly, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1Well, what's more likely is that you get to order your new Intel chips early... but you'll end up getting them after your PC friends.

    Apple is notorious for announcing products that aren't actually shipping for weeks or months.
  • zongamin, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1CRETIN!
  • Takuro, on 04/28/2008, -0/+1The title and description alone constitute burying this story up the ass for inaccuracies.

    P.S. The server's dead.
  • horscategorie, on 04/28/2008, -0/+2Why not Intle CPUs?
  • standinero, on 04/28/2008, -1/+1I've always spelled appel like appel
  • Akraz, on 04/28/2008, -3/+2***** ***** and their appels
  • mintblogger, on 04/29/2008, -0/+0Hmmmmm. One more new chip in the pipeline. Intel is packaging old wine in new bottle I think LOL...
