What the hell does the opinions of brain dead journalists have to do with my statement.
I am stating facts, you are stating opinions, it is a fact that Intel and ATI use the same drivers in their hardware for both the PC and Apple computers.
If that was not the case, these hackers would not have been able to put OSx on a PC.
Be honest why don't you? The XP on Mactel hack is not using the full power of the video display. The hack yields joe-basic video without acceleration, without directx . . . hell, it doesn't even fill the full monitor screen yet.
It is a lobotomized video throughput, nothing more.
What you claim is not the case, the video works in the most primitive fashion possible (like using the "Super VGA" on a windows install).
And for the love of God, it's OSX, not "OSx."
You said -- "I am stating facts, you are stating opinions, it is a fact that Intel and ATI use the same drivers in their hardware for both the PC and Apple computers."
And here is where you'll never make a "Steve Jobs" -- like "Does anybody care?"
Absolutely not.
You're wasting your breath and getting nowhere. People buy the machines to do things with them. Steve Jobs figured out that there were more "normal consumers" out there who wanted to "do something" with their lives -- instead of put together a bunch of wires and watch bits and bytes move from one place to the next, and get a "yuk-yuk" when their computer went "beep" at the right time.
Oh, my..., what a shock... they really want to "do something" with that computer.
Keep talking like anyone cares.... blah, blah, blah...
I'm going to "do something" with my computer.... Keep digging around in the tech-trivia; they might get a TV show going one of these days...
And in case you *still* haven't figured it out yet -- get it through your head -- Apple will never let the OS X go on a junk-parts PC box. They've already shut down a board or web site, they keep putting up roadblocks and they'll do whatever it takes to stop that dead in its tracks. Now that is really going to *instill confidence* in some consumer, like -- "I really want that now -- since Apple is sabotaging it six ways to Sunday!" Get real.
What Apple does allow is Windows running on an Apple box. That's where the market is going to be at. Focus on that and you might be living in the *real world* for a change.
