Ten years ago when I worked for the government in a cubicle ghetto, my
co-workers were always telling me I was a fool for buying new Mac
hardware, since it was obvious to everyone but me that a company with
such a small market share would soon be going belly-up (they were
telling me this while using my old Mac II, which I had brought to the
office to type and print routine memos on etc., because they had
nothing to work on while the hardware teams were trying to resurrect
their crashed Windows boxes). I told them that I though Apple had some
life left in it.
Ten years on I'm vindicated, seeing news articles like this one:
http://apnews.excite.com/article/20060111/D8F2IBM07.html
The only thing I wonder at in that article is this statement: "Apple .
. . said it would not thwart users who would seek to run Microsoft
Corp.'s Windows operating system on the machines. With Intel processors
inside the new Macs, their owners could run Microsoft Windows and
software designed for it at full speed.
Running Windows and OS-X on the same Apple box. That will be
interesting. . .
