All true - but if Apple were to release a version of OS X that ran on generic Intel hardware more reliably than Windows, it would be the end of Micro$oft as we know it.

I doubt it. You can however, make your PC look like an OS X. By just changing the Windows shell and interface. It won't make a PC a Mac but you can pretend you're running one all the same.

It'd be the end of Apple as we know it, not Microsoft. The Mac platform is fine: the problem is a question of marketing and getting people to try the thing out.
