All you guys who keep advocating that OS X should be ported to x86 are
forgetting something, I think. OS X would run like a POS on x86. Case
in point - ever tried the x86 port of Solaris? OS X is an operating
system that is designed for high-performance hardware, as is Solaris.
The x86 port of Solaris is proof-of-concept and nothing but a learning
tools release for those that won't buy the native hardware. x86 belongs
to Windows. I'd leave it that way.
