The decision to make Apple OS X computers with x86 chips and the decision to have OS X run on wintel clones are two entirely separate decisions. There are a number of ways Apple could make x86 boxes that run OS X that would preclude using it on wintel clones. It is incorrect to assume that if (and I don't think it will happen anytime soon) Apple uses x86 chips that OS X will run on clones. Also, x86 on laptops would be a big step down for Apple, especially in the power management area.
