I think changing Mac's archicteture to the x86 is one huge step that should be taken slowly, or not at all. So, basically, old Mac applications will be emulated? Will x86 coded programs run on the new Mac? Perhaps there's more than the eyes see, I don't think a full process architecture change might happen just because Apple wants to "copy-protect" their IFlicks with this new hardware, which, by the way, WILL be cracked in a matter of weeks. Perhaps Steve Jobs wants a better compatibility with IBM/PC?
