Will the Real Mac OS X Please Stand Up

Recently I read an article related to the new Intel Based Macs, that hackers were busy trying to hack the new, supposedly solid build, of OSX--the release being distributed to developers. Reports are coming in that apple has strengthened their anti-piracy routines so that even if the OS does run on a non-apple machine it won't allow you to run any applications. Isn't this the point of an OS?

First let me say that I am a mac geek. I like my macs because they are reliable. I think this is partly due to the fact that the hardware and software are controlled by the same manufacturer. PC's have so many mutations that it's impossible for Redmond to program for them all. So, you ask....what is the point of this article? The point is that all these people trying to hack the OSX86 need to get a life. If you hate your Windows so much, why not just buy a Mac? We all know that by the time the X86 machines are released apple will have built in enough protection that it will never be reliable or stable to hack it for generic hardware. When the first build was released there were several sites showing supposedly running on a Viaio (or whatever it is, I can't even pronounce it). I don't think you will find this with the new release. I think the thing that pisses most of these people off is that the new mac will be able to run OSX and windows xp, but the PC won't be able to do likewise.....who cares? Apple has made so many advances in personal computing and the Windows crowd is beginning to feel the heat. That's why they want the superior OS to work on their equipment. Here's a very interesting brief history of how far they've come. (If anyone has a similar history for Windows this might be interesting to compare).

Quite frankly if any one is ever able to hack the X86 to run reliable on generic box I probably will stick with purchasing my hardware from apple. I know it works reliably. You get what you pay for, I'd rather have a Mercedes instead of a Honda.
Some of their software practices still piss me off through. Like Itunes!
