The only reason there isn't any Apple hardware yet is 'cause it's
expensive ;-) (In comparison to your average price for a server
off eBay, that is. I picked up six quad Opterons for $999 at one

I'll give Jordan Hubbard a bell. He was the driving force behind
FreeBSD in the early days, but moved to Apple in early 2000. I
believe he's now the Director of Unix Technology now at Apple.
Actually, might as well just CC him now, no time like the present
;-)
