They didn't just "try to ensure cross-compatibility." According to Steve Jobs in this year's WWDC keynote, there have been fully-compiled and fully-functioning Intel builds of OSX as far back as 10.0. And they wouldn't just have "waited a few months" for new chips. I'm sure that Jobs was pretty peeved when IBM forced him to break his promises on the 3GHz desktop (explicit) and the Powerbook G5 (unspoken, but still expected). This will stick in Steve's craw for quite a long time, because he's basically been made to appear as a liar. -- Brad Beyenhof [EMAIL PROTECTED] my blog: http://augmentedfourth.blogspot.com Life would be so much easier if only (3/2)^12=(2/1)^7. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
