>I have read rumors that AAPL intends to make it run on Linux as well >as BSD-Unix. Will it really be a threat to MSFT? Off Topic.... If AAPL does this, life could get very interesting. I for one would want to have one of these systems on my desk. The key then would be to get enough developers to join up. And I think there are a lot of developers who would like to given a chance. It never ceases to amaze me how many people absolutely abhor anything that originates in Redmond. As to being a threat to MSFT, who knows. If MSFT has indeed threatened a vendor who was considering bundling Linux, they must see it as a threat. I think Sun sees it as a threat to their Solaris too. Thanks, Torben
