"Too bad Apple doesn't have adult supervision."

IBM does not care what apple needs. They halted PPC development to focus on game console development. They promised to delover a low power chip, and did not, they promised 3ghz and did not deliver.

Intel can deliver and the long term roadmap of their chips is promising.

"This is CYA by the folks at IBM who lost the Apple contract."

IBM obviously doen't need Apple's contract. IBM has more than enough customers for it's silicon. Sounds more like CYA by the Apple folks that lost the IBM partnership. Anyhow, this should hold Apple over until the x86 upgrade.
