But what if the various Linux Windows emulation projects are successful enough that they can run, say, 85% of Windows apps without requiring a Windows license? Then what if Apple ports that open-source Windows emulation support into OS X, and releases x86-based Macintosh boxes that run that in a compatibility layer as seamlessly as OS X's support for Classic Mac apps? Wouldn't THAT be compelling? A Macintosh that still runs all the iApps and pro Apple apps, but that also runs all of your legacy PeeCee apps?

I'd buy that.
