To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 I assume all of you are aware that you can go the other direction as well. OS-X (Intel version) will load and run (with a surprisingly small amount of work) on newer non-Mac Intel PC's with no glitches. While Apple has been good about making the ability to load Windows on the Intel Macs available (the information was already widely dispersed on the internet), their lawyers have been equally busy trying to stem the proliferation of the information that the reverse is available. You'll find some of the sites that had this information now have "link removed at the request of Apple's Legal Department." Best possible case, however, is that this is simply a delaying tactic. There's really not much of a problem finding the files you need. But OS-X (intel) has been running on, for example, common Dell laptops since at least August of last year, when some folks got the Developer's Kit version up and running. No problems, no glitches. So for those early adopters and those tired of waiting for Apple Intel laptops, or those who want lower prices or greater variety, etc., and who have a bit of computer savvy, the opportunity is there to have three systems (Linux, Windows and OS-X) running on your system, with the choice available at boot time. david
