Its official. Note to any potential Mac "switchers:" Don't switch. At least not until 2007, when the Intel trasition is over. After all this time of arguing the superiority of the x86 architecture, I am FINALLY proved correct! (yay) The G5 is dead, welcome to the Intel Inside world, Mac users. I, for one, can't wait to get my hands on a (Pentium M) Powerbook with OS 10.5!!

that will be a glorious day. but i think it may be like os 11 or so. at any rate, i am going to wait till the transition is over so my powerbook(when i get one) won't have bugs.
