Znv - Why Wintels don't line up to buy Macs ?
Its changing . WWDC reassured the faithful but also unveiled a new weapon - " peripheral compatibility "
From MacOS rumors:
" MOSR has received reports from many other readers about other companies who are developing USB peripherals -- a mountain of them, in fact, as USB is now the Wintel standard, and with forthcoming Mac support, it's the logical choice -- and are planning to deliver solid Mac OS support. It appears as though another piece of the cross-platform compatibility puzzle is falling into place..... "
Nobody wants to throw away good gear .
With industry standard USBs , AGPs , and PCIs , PowerPC Macs will be acceptable as enterprise desktops using a cross-platform MacOS X .
Till then , as S. Jobs suggests ,its low hanging fruit season .
