If Apple made Mac OS X for Intel, it would become the most pirated software on the internet and few if any would buy it. Normal people use what came with their systems. So Windows would not feel any more pressure than it currently does from Solaris for Intel or Linux. Hey, the BeOS was a great OS that you could download for free and people still continued to use what ever was originally on their system. Mac OS X is great, but it would not be that different from either the BeOS or Rhapsody.

Intel kills good operatings systems. Long live alterative hardware/software platforms!
