Perhaps this isn't the spot for this comment, perhaps... but being cursed with the ability to make these hunks of plastic work, and having had my share of running down win98 horrors, why o why does MS Windows own the world? It literally sux. the things that must be done to maintain a self corrupting OS, the re-installs of an entire OS that users typically seem to not only put up with but expect as part of the overall experience of owning a computer.
i am a mac bigot, love my iMac, and OS X runs quite nicely on this, thank you. And if i have to run a windows session to help my friends debug their Win95/98 problem of the day, its easy to do so.
i am really excited to see a whole new group of developers seriously look at Apple and the Mac for the first time. Unix plus a huge set of apps, sounds good to me.
And with the high prices Microsoft is charging for XP and XP Office, don't you think business should start looking at the Mac and Mac OS X again too?

hey,
since ipod is also a firewire drive, couldn't you use it to run any OS, any Game, anything, since of course, the Mac platform can run anything ever made? albeit through emulation...
