_From the Darwin-FAQ (http://www.darwin.org/projects/darwin/faq.html):

Q. I heard that Darwin runs on Intel processor-based PCs. Is that true?
A. Yes, and we're partnering with the Darwin developer community to
   enhance support for this platform

Now OS-X really is a great OS, maybe the best commercial OS now
available. It's stunning, how they build an intuitive Desktop on a
Unix-core, something that neither in Gnome nor KDE really worked (I'm
still prefering the command line over those)
