hardware and software for all Apple products.
IMO, if they did offer an Intel OSX for *other* computers, they
*might* be able to give MS (and esp. the much delayed and
underpowered Longhorn) a run for their money.
Chipp,
I think Apple made it quite clear in subsequent interviews that they
will NOT be making an OS X to run on anyone else's hardware. They
did not rule out MS providing a Windows version to run on their new
Apptel hardware just as you can run Linux now. It is quite clear
that Apple plans on continuing to supply a complete hardware/software
solution.
If you think about it, that is a smart marketing strategy --Buy your
hardware from us and you can run anything!
