Had to know this was coming.

They aren't really even in the hardware business anyway. Half the ipods use chipsets from a company owned by creative, and their notebooks are made by Asus (no idea who does the desktops for them though).

So what's so great in Apples hardware? How does their CPU's compare to Pentiums and Athlon 64 CPU's?
