Hmmm... do you think that the Mac OS X will be coming to PC any time soon? 😕
And if not, why not???

Cheers!

No, not a chance. Because, primarily Apple are a hardware company.

I sure hope not. Mac OS will look way to good on those (mostly) big ugly boxes.

It'll never go to generic PCs. If it did there would be no need to pay the premium for Apple hardware.

Also Steve Jobs would never allow it. Look what happened to the clones on his return.

Because it would hit the sales of Apple computers.

No, because Apple make their money from hardware sales.
