I don't understand what "Rhapsody on Intel and on Windows" means. Rhapsody is an OS, while window is another OS. Rhapsody is an Unix- based, Window is an pc OS. He meant Rhapsody on Intel, and Yellow Box on Windows, I believe. And I don't think it's a smoke-screen at all. In fact, I think that Jobs saying "no more Rhapsody" is the smoke-screen. They want Mac developers to port first, then Apple will go full bore cross platform. The purpose, as someone mentioned, is to avoid the OS/2 debacle, where noone wrote OS/2 apps because OS/2 could run Windows apps (until Windows itself changed, and made OS/2 obsolete and new-app-less). rhet0ric
