It's all quite surreal. I've been off and on this list since
Rhapsody on Intel faded into the sunset.
I always thought in the back of my mind that this list was proof of
something... I can't express how excited this development makes me.
To think that my current, or next, PC might be "Mac compatible"? Oh,
thank heaven.
JK. Tell your superiors that they have just opened the door to a
gold mine and that they will be rewarded ten fold. I hope they don't
stop making Apple computers though. Now they can have their cake and
eat it too.
Congratulations.

So....
With Apple's announcement that its planning to switch over to Intel
chips, does this mean this whole effort with Darwin was less of a
grass
roots effort as hobbyists to move the Mac OS over to x86 via Darwin
and
more of Apple just sitting back and letting us be their lab rats while
we found solutions and answers to making Darwin more stability and
useable? I honestly don't mind, heck if Darwin keeps evolving
into a
far more stable and robust commercial version, something with the
potential to chip away at the Windows empire, I'm all for that. I
just
thought it was interesting to see how things have sort of come
together
on this path.
I think we did *a little more on x86 than just put out Darwin
releases during the last 5 years, heh
But sure, the Darmwin x86 community helped towards this whole effect.
It's weird after so so long to be able to talk about this at all....
