Apple switched to Intel Processors

[~*McoreD*~]

Okay now it is official. Few things at the WWDC 2005 caused the WOW factor.

1. Apple had Mac OS X for x86 since 2000.
2. Steve Jobs for his Keynote was using Mac OS X running on an Intel box.

Some thoughts...

Hopefully they can cut down the prices to match Windows PCs.
We can install Mac OS X in our PCs. --- not anymore. Just read an article which said they are not going to let people install Mac OS X on computers other than Apple manufactured ones.

Apple scared to let Mac OS X deal with variety of hardware? (something which Windows is already doing).

I was looking forward to dual boot Mac OS X and Windows XP. Doesn't look like that day will come in the near future.

Please have your say...

Cheers,

Well, now that it's clear you cant (easily) install Mac OS X in normal PCs. But I wonder if we could install Windows on a formatted iMac that has an Intel processor.
