Re: Article: What a Long, Strange Year It's Been!

[Mike Zimbard] "I love OSX as an operating system for the same reasons you mention in there article. Would you see Apple under any circumstances make their OS available to the masses and hardware independent? With the Mac Pro line inevitably dying my dream would be all of our artists and editors on HP workstations with AJA cards running OSX. Wouldn't that be nice??"

Nope, not going to happen unless a future CEO decides to make it happen. Remember when Steve killed off the Mac Clones in the past, that strengthened the Apple product line. It took some time, but Apple is all about end to end control. Their machines, their OS, their sandbox.

So you never say never, but unless someone comes along that "thinks different" than Steve Jobs, the answer is no.
