Rumor: Apple working on ARM-based Mac variants with larger trackpad built into keyboard | 9to5Mac & AppleInsider

Here’s today’s  winner for most fun rumor. Is Apple working on new Macs using the same kinds of chips (ARM) used in its iOS devices? With the trackpad built into the keyboard?

Read the comments.

I am sure that Apple has built prototypes of Macs running all sorts of CPUs. We know that Apple ran a parallel effort to put OS X on Intel chips from the very start of OS X development. So I’m sure that OS X has been compiled to run on a wide range of processors, albeit with varying degrees of success and/or practicality.
