Don't worry, Apple will be around for a VERY long time.

NIICE ARTICLE! By the way, there are some disturbing rumours that Apple will turn to Intel and x86 chips some time in the near (?) or distant future! :confused: Is it true or just rumours?

Rumors...switching to x86 would be hardware quality suicide for Apple.

I definitely agree to that, that's why I was a bit disturbed to hear those rumors.

That's because Apple makes all its money by locking people into a specific hardware platform if they want to run their OS. These arguments about how the quality of the hardware would be ruined are bogus. My PC has excellent hardware and I couldn't ask for better reliability. Besides, if people want to buy OS X from Apple and put it on third party machines, so what, if they have trouble then they can't expect Apple to help them, can they? Not everyone is a computer idiot who needs Apple to build computers that "just work" for them. The past 3 computers I've owned I built myself, and until Apple allows me to do this then I can't see myself buying anything from them.
