I believe you can get an Intel machine from Apple very soon for testing if you are a developer. I thought I read somewhere during the keynote that you could get Pentium machine running Tiger in order to test.

Wow, I'd be very surprised if this is the case. Not only would Apple be providing MANY developers with a PC with custom ROM's which could be hacked, but also you can just imagine the possibility for the new systems to be 'leaked' which would/could drive Stevie crazy!

I think I read on their website, they would provide subscribed/paying developers some sort of ACCESS to these PC's. I'm thinking it'll cost you over $5K to get such access.

Here is what you get for porting:

It costs $999 and you must be a Select or Premier member.


2. ... I expect all software MUST be upgraded when Leopard ships. IMO, this is a big of an upgrade as the OS9 to BSD UNIX OSX.
I don't know that this is correct. Rosetta seems to take care of running current software without any recompile.

Yeah, but it'll be running some sort of morphed code in simulation, kinda like what VirtualPC does...very slowly.

True but I think Rosetta will be much faster than a VPC solution since it is built into the operating system.
