Adam: Re: "what has KEPT Apple from adopting Intel (or AMD) processors?"

Short Answer: Steve Jobs

Jobs will not touch anything that even remotely smells like Wintel. Apple has always prided itself on its "exclusivity" and to adopt Intel, or AMD for that matter, would just put them in the same league as Dell, HPaq or Gateway. I am sure that the Apple shareholders wouldn't mind being in the same league as Dell, but Jobs will never let it happen.
