It will be interesting to see how the Mac OS X graphics driver compares to Linux and Windows! (In the past, Linux has presented better graphics performance than Mac OS X.) I'm still quite fond of running the Intel Core i7 3770K CPU even after about two months of use, its performance is very good on the CPU side and quite good for its integrated graphics. Intel's Windows driver is faster than the Linux driver and the Windows driver does OpenGL 4.0 while the Linux driver is at OpenGL 3.0, but aside from the inequalities to the Windows driver, the Linux support is quite good. As mentioned in what's dozens of Phoronix articles now, these latest Intel CPUs launched back in April already work well under Linux. The new mobile MacBook Air/Pro models are using Intel Ivy Bridge processors. Since yesterday's keynote at the beginning of Apple's WWDC event where they announced several new MacBook products, I've received a number of emails asking about the Linux support for these 2012 MacBook Air models and the next-generation MacBook Pro.
