<<The hardware discussion today revealed that they are moving away from ROM because of the latency issues. >>

Does this mean that the OS is no longer contingent on the Apple ROMs?

If so, does that make it easier for an Intel port of the OS?

Also, does this reduce the hardware cost of clone developers so that they might swallow a higher OS licensing cost? Could this revive cloning of the Mac?
