No he is not right. It is the otherway around. So no cheap ass home
built to run OsX! ;o)
After Jobs' presentation, Apple Senior Vice President Phil Schiller
addressed the issue of running Windows on Macs, saying there are no
plans to sell or support Windows on an Intel-based Mac. "That
doesn't preclude someone from running it on a Mac. They probably
will," he said. "We won't do anything to preclude that."
However, Schiller said the company does not plan to let people run
Mac OS X on other computer makers' hardware. "We will not allow
running Mac OS X on anything other than an Apple Mac," he said.
