Apple to Move Quickly on Intel Core 2 Duo Laptops

Apple plans to adopt Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile (Merom) processors in it’s laptops at a rapid pace, AppleInsider reports.

The company is slated to receive mass shipments of the new Merom Core 2 Duo processors by the first week of September and plans to be amongst the first PC manufacturers to introduce systems based on the new chips, Apple Insider’s source said.

Although Intel has been shipping Core 2 Duo processors to system manufacturers since last month, it has been doing so in extremely limited quantities that have not been substantial enough to support new product launches, the source added.
