Apple Computer's decision to run with Intel chips is drawing cheers and jeers in its vendor community.
Intel CEO Paul Otellini, Adobe CEO Bruce Chizen and Roz Ho, general manager of Microsoft's Macintosh business unit, all took their turns gushing over Apple CEO Steve Jobs as he explained to developers why a massive platform switch was not only beneficial but critical to Apple's success. "What took you so long?" Chizen quipped, but later added that Adobe wouldn't exist if it weren't for Apple. Chizen also announced plans to create future versions of Adobe's Creative Suite, including Photoshop for Macintosh, that support both PowerPC and Intel processors.
