Apple is to offer AMD-powered laptop computer, according to a report by DigiTimes. It is reported that “Taiwan passive component makers are witnessing an aggressive increase in orders for high-capacitance multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), with most of the MLCCs having a capacitance of 22μF, and being for use in an AMD-based Apple notebook.”
AMD CEO Hector Ruiz noted in September that the AMD and Apple will eventually do business with each other. But, it is reported that some motherboard makers are doubtful about any AMD and Apple partnership, because of claimed performance advantage Intel currently enjoys over AMD, especially for the Core 2 Duo processor compared with AMD’s present CPU lineup.
