Who says it'll be a total switch? I could easily imagine Apple switching to x86 for its lower end products (or even selling MacOS X for PC clones) but continuing to use PowerPC for high end workstations and servers. There's some actual potential to make a profit selling hardware into these niches, whereas there's little or none in the highly saturated consumer desktop and notebook markets. ><yoda>The boy you trained, gone he is.
