    Personally I don't think that use intel Macs for MOS to x86 migration would be a good idea. We would take another expensive road..


    While I a m not a big fan of Apple myself and wonder how long Apple will stay in the PC business (hello Itix ;-)), I think the reasons for probably chosing Apple on the x86 side are pretty valid ones. Apple computers have a comparable slow product cycle, their cofigurations stay for a while. Also the average Apple users don't seem to me as if they were swapping the internal compounds of their computers at their gusto, but keep their hardware rather untouched. Plus Apple computers are easy to spot and identify. Look on ebay for a certain Apple computer from a few years ago and for a certain Dell/Fujitsu/Packard Bell/#? from a few years ago and tell me which one is easier (not cheaper) to obtain.

    Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
