This is neither speculation nor definite; I've heard this story from a
variety of sources so I think there is some truth in it. It seems Motorola
aren't too keen on developing the G* series of processors, so Apple is going
to have to make a difficult choice. If they choose Intel (most likely) the
story I've read suggests that they will use modified motherboards so that
OSX will ONLY work on these particular boards. Apple will NEVER release OSX
so that it runs on OEM PC's - how will make any money?

I hate Apple.

>From what I can make of the article, it's just a bunch of speculations by
the author 
cause he sees MS and Apple growing further appart from each other.

What he thinks might happen is that Apple will be producing Macs, who'll be
using AMD (or 
Intel) processors instead of G4s. But it'll still be Macs, and you could
theoretically 
run Windows on them (if you can get all the HW drivers).

Frankly I don't see this thing happening soon.

But it would be interesting to see the Mac OS ported for the Intel platform.
That would 
IMO be some serious competition for Windows!
