I am totally confused on this, is the new mac gonna have an x86 chip
in it, or is intel going to make a newly designed chip?
They'll use x86 chips.
And for people who also run the mac os (like me) by a universal
binary, is that code that is not dependent on the processor, but on
the os? So like it would run on either a ppc mac or the new one, as
long as they have the mac os?
No. Or maybe a universal binary is like the 'FAT' binaries in that it
contains code for both architectures. Not sure.
And is this basically going to be like when mac switched from the
68k to the PowerPC Chip, where the PPC chip ran stuff from 68k,
I don't think they'll add a ppc emulator, so probably no.
