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?

Maybe you got that mixed up with the fact that IBM will be making Mac processors in the future.

That's because Apple makes all its money by locking people into a specific hardware platform if they want to run their OS.

Only an idiot would buy a Mac expecting to switch to any OS they want. Thats Apple's trademark: great hardware (well hopefully) and great software that was made for that hardware.
Calum:
linux can run on a PPC, and so can BeOS. and i agree with the thing about 'why don't they make OSX available on other platforms'. they should, just not give support. i think apple are *far* too scared after the 'apple clone wars' of about five or ten years ago...

Macman : No, there are actually MANY sites with rumors about the x86 OS X (apparently dubbed 'Marklar'). Nothing substantiated, just pie-in-the-sky wishing.
At this point, considering the 970/GPuL/WhateverthefuckIBMcallsitnow is a reality, and IBM seems much more interested in chip production now, hopefully the Marklar stuff will die away, and be forgotten forever...

It is, there is no secret about it. Look it up on O'Rilley, Apple just hasen't released it.
