There is some interesting reading there Plonk. I would really be surprised if Apple went with either Intel or AMD. The Nvida thing is definitely something that would be do-able whether they teamed with VIA, bought licensing from them, or did a Transmeta type thing. Of course there is always the possibility that instead of an Nvida thing, they could do a AMD/ATI combo chip/GPU whatever. But I don't think that AMD would be in a spot really to do that given their current and recent struggles to get the Phenoms out the door.
