When Apple moved to the Intel platform for its Macs, I thought for SURE they'd finally release a version of the MacOS... an already tested and established OS with huge support base... that would run on any Intel based PC.
I have no clue why they never did. Software is MUCH cheaper to develop & sell than hardware with a MUCH higher profit margin.
Various flavors of Linux have been around for years, and I keep a partition with Ubuntu on it for those rare times disaster strikes my Windows setup. But as good as Ubuntu is, it just doesn't match the ease of use of Windows (still using XP with no intention of moving anytime soon.)
