Wiki-round
A Wiki-round is a collection of Wikipedia links connected in a seemingly random, yet linear order. The object of a Wiki-round is to trace the number of links (degrees of separation) that lead you back to the original article entry, and to demonstrate the ultimate connectedness of all things Wiki.

An example of a Wiki-round with six degrees of separation would be this:

Apple Intel transition
This article discusses Apple's transition from PowerPC processors to an Intel-based architecture.

Reaction to the change
The early announcement of the change causing an Osborne effect; and the possibility that Intel could force Apple to use the Intel Inside branding.

Osborne effect
Pre-announcing products in a way which incurs the Osborne effect is an example of a self-defeating prophecy (as opposed to a self-fulfilling prophecy)...

Technology
In 1965, Gordon Moore predicted that the number of transistors on integrated circuits would double every 18 months. This prediction, which became known as Moore's law, was initially an observation of a trend in the early days of the semiconductor industry. However, it has become a benchmark for progress in the industry, and a goal that companies focus on attaining. It thus became a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Gordon Moore
Gordon Earl Moore (born in San Francisco, California, January 3, 1929) is the cofounder of Intel Corporation and the author of Moore's law (published in an article 19 April 1965 in Electronics Magazine).

Intel
Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC, SEHK: 4335), founded in 1968 as Integrated Electronics Corporation, is a U.S.-based multinational corporation that is best known for designing and manufacturing microprocessors and specialized integrated circuits.

Partnership with Apple
On June 6, 2005, Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs announced in his keynote address at WWDC that Apple would be transitioning from its long-favored PowerPC architecture to Intel CPUs.
