I don't see any reason that Apple Intel-based computers have to have any resemblance to Wintel boxes. The fact of the matter is that they can throw away all the shit that's keeping Wintels in 1982 (the terrible BIOS structure comes to mind) and create basically an Apple-architecture machine that happens to have an Intel microprocessor at its core instead of a PowerPC.


Took the words from my mouth. One of Apple's strengths is that they could manage the configuration of both the hardware and the software. MS just ins't able to integerate it's software to everybodys hardware, in that same way.

I really hope Apple dosen't adopt the commodity PC as it's hardware platform.
