Mongrel Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I hope they announce tablet pc compatibility. 586025041[/snapback] Me too, that's what the industry really needs, is Apple to make tablet computing mainstream. I'd love one running Windows today, but they're still kinda ugly & overpriced. Ives could get the ball rolling. Mac vs. PC used to be like Coke vs. Orange Juice. Now it's getting more & more like Coke vs. Pepsi. Probably better that way.

Daybreak Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I just hope Apple doesn't lock down the hardware available too badly. Would love to give Mac a run out, but not by buying assembled PCs.

giga Veteran Posted June 6, 2005 Veteran Share Posted June 6, 2005 So does this mean that the consumers (us) will be able to buy Mac OS X x86 and run it on your current PCs? Or will Apple be selling x86 PCs from their own store and we'll have to use that?

Brandon Live Veteran Posted June 6, 2005 Veteran Share Posted June 6, 2005 I don't think there will be a time that you will go to best buy and purchase OSX for your Dell PC, there will be some sort of lockdown 586025067[/snapback] Probably not anytime soon (I think today we can all agree to never say never). However, I think that if people want to run this OS on their non-Apple PCs, they'll find a way.

rseiler Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 "In the cultural sense, Intel is a lot like Apple..." Really? Isn't AMD a lot more like Apple, a smaller company, the underdog with the superior product? AMD must have negotiated for this deal, and it would have done wonders for the competitive balance if they'd won.

azcodemonkey Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I don't know why people think that moving to x86 is going to hamstring Apple. It's not like they decided to dump their OS to put XP on Mac hardware. *That* would be the end of Apple. You don't really believe that they'll allow OSX to run on non-Apple hardware, do you? I don't. If they did, however, I think MS would have some serious thinking and programming to do. This move is going to lower Apple's costs, which will get passed on to the consumer. They're going for better volume. Yay! I think this is a great move. I know I switched because of the OS, not the processor.

Garry Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hmm, just thought - OSX WILL have to be locked to Macs only. There's no way Apple are going to write a brand new driver model to support all the various PC configurations out there. At least not soon. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/328955-official-wwdc-2005-keynote-discussion/page/7/#findComment-586025104 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaffra Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I'm thinking there will be some type of lock in anyway, something to prevent OSX from running on say, a Dell computer.I don't think there will be a time that you will go to best buy and purchase OSX for your Dell PC, there will be some sort of lockdown 586025067[/snapback] yea like the locks some cad software makers do, or like the protection of xbox, ps.

Steven Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 This paves way for Apple to create an Emulation Software to let OSX /Mac Software to run on PC's easier with awesome performance.

buddhalishousboy Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Does this mean that when there is an Intel version of OSX released, I will be able to buy it and put it on my Dell, or does that mean I would have to buy a Mac computer?
