OSX coming to X86?!

Before Apple had committed to the PowerPC, they had already successfully ported their OS to the Intel chipset. Intel was fully involved in providing direct support for the effort - I believe with the direct and personal cooperation of Andy Grove. But these were the days of Michael Spindler. Innovation would be routinely quashed. Apple's OS was fully functional on Intel hardware and still Apple could not commit to marketing the product.
