Apple pulls back on OS X-only plan for Macs

Apple has pulled back from a plan that would have made Mac OS X the 
primary operating system on all new Macs starting in January, 
according c|net: "Apple will continue to sell schools some Macs 
capable of booting up into Mac OS 9, and will continue to sell a 
Power Mac G4 geared toward professionals such as graphic designers 
until June 2003," Apple said in a statement to select media outlets. 
The company said that educational customers are ordering 50% of the 
its Macs with Mac OS X as the default OS and that it "expects this 
percentage to climb to over 75 percent by the start of the next 
education buying season this April." (In September, Steve Jobs said 
that all new Macs would only boot Mac OS X beginning in January 2003.
