I don't know....it doesn't seem like a stretch at all to imagine that the only hardware Apple sells one day being the iPod. Apple could be a software/iPod company. Just like Microsoft is a software/Xbox company. I dunno...it doesn't seem impossible. With the sales of software, media content (iTunes, maybe video stuff sometime soon), and the iPod (with accessories), Apple could make out pretty well.

It will definitely be a long time, if ever, that they decide to ditch computers though. Who knows. It seems that things are up in the air now as to what Apple's future is.

And I think that's the key to this Intel deal. Before, the PPC had Apple locked into a particular path, now it's anyone's guess as to what Apple and Jobs are going to do in the long run.
