But then, I am not CEO of Apple, iCon is.

That's obvious Joe. For starters you ignored the "more than
a thousand" Intel engineers and software engineers that Steve
Jobs publically thanked for helping make Apple's transition
to x86 and initial product roll-out happen so quickly and
relatively smoothly.

Only a raving lunatic could think AMD could have dreamed
of offering Apple a tiny fraction of that amount of technical
hand-holding in the areas of system hardware development,
system software porting, and development and tuning tools.
AMD itself largely depends on the kindness of strangers in
all of these this areas.

Go ahead and call the CEO of Apple names for not ignoring
all common sense and engineering realities to try to pull off
a complex platform transition with only AMD and a prayer in
order to save a few bucks on component pricing. You show
yet again why your comments and opinions should be heavily
discounted by anyone other than full kool-aid swilling AMD
camp followers.
