I think he's whistling past the graveyard I think so too. The authors seem to forget that emulation or binary compatibility does not translate into larger adoption. Look at IBM's OS2 (if you can still find it anywhere), or Linux (Windows app emulation through WINE). Why pay more for Apple hardware to run Windows? Just to get OSX? Not likely. I'd pay extra for an OSX that would run on standard PC hardware, but I wouldn't pay a dime for Apple hardware that locks you into what Apple chooses for you. Derek
