As for not knowing about Darwin, you seriously undermine your credibility as a serious Apple watcher/Mac user if you say you have never heard of it. If you think there is a market opportunity that Steve Jobs is somehow not smart enough to see, that strains it still further. From Apple to NeXT to Pixar and back at Apple, he doesn't seem like the type to leave money on the table. If he thought there was a business case for licensing, I suspect he would not have shut down down the clone business when he returned in 1997. I have yet to see anything in favor of licensing that doesn't boil down to "I want cheaper kit." -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/ <paulbeard.org> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
