Plus, software for Windows will, or it sounds like, will be universal on either environment.

Cool and it's about time! I still plan on getting the apple hardware though, even if it has an Intel processor in it (expected next year), its still kick ass!
I don't think Apple will be _releasing_ an OSX compatible with modern PCs. There's a few more parts in those boxes that differentiate the Mac from an x86 PC. It would have to recognize a PC BIOS for one.
I read at slashdot.org that there is a torrent making its rounds of an Intel x86-compatible MacOSX. Don't know what the hell this is or where it came from. For years there was a rumor (no, legend) of a PC running Mac OSX in Apple's possession. Maybe this is it's OS.
