I saw that yesterday, and I'm skeptical. Until Apple makes an official announcement, it's just a rumor. This reminds of when Dell was flirting with AMD.
However, if Apple does drop IBM for Intel, I don't know if IMB would have any customers for its processors left.

They have, to some degree. I think that the GameCube uses an IBM chip, and I think the new XBox might actually use one too. But this would still be a very big loss for them.
