Will Steve Jobs Let Mac OS Run on Intel Boxes?
Will Steve Jobs Let Mac OS Run on Intel Boxes : Now, it seems that the company that makes Parallels is working on an upgrade to the software that will let Windows users theoretically run Mac OS X side-by-side with Windows
Hmmm. Could it happen after all? Maybe there’s a chance I wasn’t too far off the mark on the morning of the 2005 Developer Conference when I said Apple might consider opening up OS X to Windows users.
I bet if Apple allowed OS X to run on a Win box–even if it were emulated–it would entice some of those hold-outs who were tempted to switch when the Intel machines were released, but didn’t want to layout the big bucks for new hardware.
All purely speculative–but it could be interesting, no? Let me know what you think!

Agree that Apple allowing OS X to run on Windows box would bring additional ‘hold-outs’ to test the OS X waters. In fact, I think the big surprise news with the Leopard release will be that Apple will in fact do just this - and allow OS X to run on your Windows box!
