PlayStation 3 Could Support Mac OS X

Posted by Zonk on from the it-could-do-many-things dept.

The most interesting part about the page, though, is the last sentence which reads: 'The integrated Cell processor will be able to support a variety of operating systems (such as Linux or Apple's Tiger).' Is this what Steve Jobs was talking about when he said Apple and Sony looked forward to cooperating more in the future?"

    Don't worry, Apple will never license it's OS. It tried that, it sucked for Apple... they learned their lesson.

    Apple licensing it's OS is about as likely as Apple switching to x86, or releasing a multi-button mouse.

    Oh, wait...

    I'm guessing with all of its added features that have nothing to do with video games, it will just be a POS.
