Sorry for the offtopic post but this really scares the crap out of me...

Hmm, well, if this statement is true:

"No software will be able to run on Mac OS X 10.7 without being approved and signed by Apple, Inc."

it will kill the use of Macs for research stone dead (including all those supercomputer clusters, particle accelerators, etc). The Mac is widely used as a flavour of unix running gcc etc (I use it that way myself and there are loads of Macs in Bath Uni's computer science dept). It is hard to believe Apple would so readily lose that considerable global market, and leave it entirely to Linux running on PC boxes.
