This is silliness.

I can't see spending all that much extra money on Apple hardware just to run Windows, not to mention having to figure out their terminology and icon differences to effectively use the keyboard. This is clearly aimed at the Mac user who likes to live on both sides of the fence, mostly due to certain applications, and games like Myst: Uru. Of course, after they get sickened by the Windows environment, they can always just reboot into OSX. Sounds like Apple admitting defeat in that they felt some need to make Windows run on their hardware. Meanwhile, the better OS (OSX) is still only available through hardware purchases. God forbid Apple play both sides of the fence. What a bunch of elitist snobs they are! They could make a killing in licensing OSX to run on PCs, but of course, that would undermine their hardware sales. I like the idea of releasing an "unsupported" OSX that is at least stable enough to run on PC hardware, but if anything goes wrong, you're on your own.
