well, I've just found out that - unofficially - the second of my three must have Adobe apps (that sparked this) will work under Bootcamp (but not parallels)... so I may just need an Intel Mac and a copy of WinXP after all...
(I still don't get how that works - what about WinXP service packs? What does the "Windows Genuine Advantage" worm-ware do on a Mac?) And I still reckon that Windows have won the operating system wars thanks to Apple, reaching into a hardware platform it could never get to in the past. Will it come down to Apple providing the hardware, Microsoft the O/S and people using an Apple machine but never use OS-X? What should it be called? Winpple? AppleSoft? MicroApples? Macdows?
