Now here's a bit of news that will make Chad happy. Rumor has it that
Apple will sell x86 boxes with Mac OS X on them and Apple software:

Though I disagree with the content of the story (that this will hurt
Linux) this is still interesting. At least if they keep the price not
far from other x86 boxes. I've thought about Mac OS X, but never too
seriously because of (1) price of Apple hardware and (2) fewer choices
for Linux distros.
If Apple-x86 computers are comparable to other x86 computers, I might
buy one. Maybe for myself, maybe not. My brother is into media, and all
his favourite software runs on Macs; and he loves Macs.
Cheers,
Daniel.
