Please remember all the hoopla about Apple shifting to Unix with OSX. Cries of doomsday and a big Wass'up.
Apple shifting to an open system??????? It's all been uphill pretty much. The biggest problem Apple had with Motorola/IBM was delivering a faster chip for their laptops, one of the bigger selling sectors. There seems to be a wider horizon opening up. Intel is a chip making company period. IBM had so little expertise they had to sell their computer manufacturing unit. Remember IBM was responsible for Microsoft, practically giving them DOS, figuring it wasn't worth much and clearing the way for BG and crew to monopolize the OS for pc's. Open vistas ahead, maybe even getting game for Mac! I'm sure this is a well thought strategy for the future.
