Bill, didn't you read Mac OS Rumors today, with the e-mail from the Motorola employee who is talking about an agreement to allow cloners back in 18-months from now? Is it just me, or isn't it obvious that since Rhapsody will run on Intel, Apple will start licensing again? -Matt

The days of the Mac as an alternative propietary PC are gone. Too late for that. I see three ways out for the Mac: 1.- Become an SGI-type workstation manufacturer. This requires a substantial lead in all things graphical. 2.- Move towards an intel platform. This would allow corporations to hedge their bets by buying Intel. 3.- The NC market. IMHO this is the hardest one, as these "X-terminals version 2.0" have not yet found their appropiate niche. It seems Apple is making tentative moves in all three fronts.
