Wouldn't such a major architecture change cause most of the programs currently written for mac to not function at all? If that's the case, then switching to an x86 architecture *could* ruin apple. My guess is that they're not changing architectures, but that they're just going to have intel produce PPC chips, or something that is fairly compatible.

Just my predictions -

I just heard that Apple will switch to Intel CPU's for future products.

Mac OS -> OSX -> Linux

68K -> PPC -> x86

The future is for geeks....
