But there is already a lot of pressure on Dell to offer AMD-equipped products - especially in the profitable server market - since AMD chips are faster and more power-efficient, from what I read. In my opinion, Apple will most likely increase its share of the PC market - not hard when you control a small percentage. When this happens, Dell will start selling AMD products. Why risk losing further market share to HP, Lenovo, etc.? If I had to buy a stock, my pick would be Apple - they dominate their market (music players), and can only go up in their other industry (PCs). I can't even name a competitor against the iPod. Intel is losing market share to AMD, and I'm not sure their management is up to the task of turning the company around.

Prior to Intel's decision to go with Apple, Dell was already considering AMD. I believe Dell has no opinion of Intel working with Apple. For Apple it was all about the company's own operating system. It was Apple's choice to support Microsoft Windows. Dell may have to look at Apple as another Windows PC maker in the future. Andy Hi Trinh,

If Apple is able to gain more market share by introducing its capability to run both OS natively (which I believe it will), Dell might give AMD the green light as trinh had suggested. This will definitely hurt Intel. I think trinh pham has an excellent point there.

I would think it's the other way around. Everything you say (strength in industrial design, loyal fan base), Andy, points to Apple benefitting - I think the company will increase its share of PC market. Intel, on the other hand, can lose market share if Dell interprets this as a slap in the face. Dell is Intel's most loyal customer - it doesn't sell AMD products. What will stop them from incorporating AMD chips in its products as a result of Intel's partnership with Apple? Intel is a clear winner…but it’s a toss-up with Apple?

It's a move that I've been considering for a few months now. I've been watching your site now for a few months... It's been a great learning tool for me since you seem to watch stocks that I am also interested in. Keep up the good work... Matt I agree with your Intel statement.
