I managed a retail store that was primarily a Mac dealer for 12 years  
and after hearing Apple beat the PowerPC drum (or rather, anti-Intel  
drum) so long and so hard, this announcement just seems like the most  
hypocritical claptrap I've heard in my lifetime.

It's going mean boon or bust for Apple in the personal computer  
business.  I'm leaning toward bust.
