Maybe. They also make $130 for every new copy of OSX they sell.
Well, you can do that sort of now anyway with VirtualPC for the Win stuff, though it is slowish, and there's an X11 client for OSX now (two, actually, one from Apple and another by a third party). You already have a BSD "linux" release in OSX.If they DID however, I would be at the front of the line....cheap PC hardware, nice Mac OS....multi boot Linux, Win, Mac...awwhawhaw.
