Absolutely,  Apple's opportunity is staggering given the gigantic 
plague infesting the windoze world.  If they do the pentium processor 
integration right, they could easily be at 20% market share in 5 years 
(longhorn will be delayed another year by then).  OS X on a pentium box 
that could boot windoze.  It would fly into most companies under the 
"its a windoze box" on the PO.  Then once it hits the desk, it'll never 
leave OS X, and the secretaries,  marketing mavens and program managers 
won't care either way.  They'll happily run office, bill will get his 
windoze tax (maybe- he still excludes multiple OS's which we all thot 
was illegal) and apple will sell OS updates.

"Dude you're gettin a Dell" should make the average guy shiver in 
abject terror.
