APPLEs OS could ship on Gateways, Dells, and HP/Compaq, etc. too. For Apple to start to ship on mainstream machines, you'd have to see far more driver support from 3rd parties. Microsoft realized that 9 out of 10 crashes in Windows are due to shitty drivers written by hack programmers. The whole WHQL thing was created by Microsoft to solve the problem, and even then, they still stink. Once you start diluting OSX with crap drivers, it's going to become just as awful as Windows is. The idea that the OS and hardware are so tightly integrated together that things "just work" is a huge selling point for Apple. I reloaded Windows on my laptop and spent about an hour and a half downloading and installing drivers to get it to work. When I bought my wife's Mac Mini, I can have the OS installed and everything configured in 15 minutes. Finally, Apple makes a really healthy profit on their hardware. If you unbundle the OS from the hardware, what's the incentive to buy Apple hardware? Sure, it looks cool but most savvy people will want to get the best deal. Then, Apple has to make their margins from the OS. I can tell you something - Microsoft isn't getting rich selling Windows licenses. It would be extremely stupid for Apple to unbundle OSX from the Mac platform.
