I'm not sure, but I think Steve was talking about the old Apple System 7. I don't see why Windows 7 wouldn't run on an Intel Mac. I don't think this Snow Leopard will be much of a change over Leopard. As others have mentioned it simply is a way for Apple to cut costs and maximize the code for one architecture. I'm in the sad boat of G5 owners (2.3GHz dual core) who are in the middle of the Apple ocean reaching for that oar, but watching it drift away... oh well I guess it's time to get a mini! On a side note, what cat will be after Snow Leopard and what happens once Apple starts using Lion do they turn towards canines? Oooh look the new OS XI Jack Russell or Rotweiler or Huskey.
