Sorry to feed the trolls, but I couldn't resist. Isn't OSX just

It's not at all clear that Apple had a choice, please read comp.sys.intel for a long discussion I won't repeat.

I'm not making this up! It would have been nice to have a competing
platform remaining to keep everybody honest. Now that Apple is
going Intel, we will be forced to use whatever the Indians provide.

Or download OSX and run it elsewhere, or...
