Why on earth would Apple do that? Apple's money comes from their Mac sales,
no matter what the iPod publicity implies. Do they want to chuck that by
dropping into the commodity PC market? If they make a PC that can triple
boot Mac, Windows and Linux, then it's an easy matter for someone else to do
so, too.
It's not going to happen.
