Many ways to look at it. We all have only our own view, really, right? The way I look at it is: I almost upgraded this year; if I had, I'd be so pissed off right now, I can't tell you. I'd be saying to myself: why do I always have to buy in at the damn top? As is, I still have a need to upgrade, for speed reasons only. Knowing what I know now, I can put up with the speed I have and wait for the first generation of MacIntel laptops which I bet will be killer. I'll be close to first in line for one!

The biggest downside for me is the possibility that a new killer app will come along and won't work on the old chips.
Thanks to new tools writing a new application simultaneously for both chips is easy, : Jobs presentation:

Only one CD need to be produced.
Rewriting existing program for Intel chip is somewhat more difficult.
