Why Apple should port OS X

[waiting_for_OSX]

If Apple ports OS X to the Intel x86 architecture, everyone will see how poorly OS X performs next to Windows XP and Linux. No one will believe Apple's propaganda when any user can scientifically compare, side by side on one machine, Apple's OS X, Linux and Windows XP.

Anytime a troll writes something, he/she show his/hers greatest fears.

from te rules:

"No posting of arguments from other boards - We have plenty of quarrels here at macosx.com. We don't need to import them from other message boards."

Types of Posters We'd Like To Discourage:

"Trolls: This type of person has the tendency to visit message boards for the sole purpose of complaining or saying things that cause other members to get up into a frenzy. These type of posts are usually off-topic anyhow and they lead to nothing productive, so please just don't be a Troll or see yourself Trolled out of here."

actually Apple shouldn't port X because it will show how much better wintel hardware is than Apple hardware but on the other hand it will show how much better X will run on faster processors, which in turn will show how much potential X has, wuteva I hate whats ifs

Wait a second. Am I stupid? What is Darwin, and opendarwin.org but a port? People are running Darwin on Intel. Its ported.

People are running X86 and X on X on OS X. Linux is ported.

Both are based on Unix like stuff (e.g BSD).

Would you buy the fastest car, the cheapest car, or the one which fits your needs ?

Same thing may one day apply when people choose a computer.
