Default Own a Mac?

Be afraid! Be very afraid!!

With the recent move to Intel chips for Apple Mac's, everyone (idiots) immediately thought "duh..now we can install Windows on a mac". There was a whole host of people who worked day and night trying to crack it. Someone even did it, wrote their own boot loader and installed XP on their Mac. Well done, thats like buying a ferrari and adding square wheels. Of course some more clever people tried the opposite, installing OSX on a PC....

Someone caused alarm by hinting that Apple may disregard OSX and go the Windows route. Of course everyone thought this man was an idiot.

It was then leaked that some developers at Apple were working on some Windows support, it was guessed perhaps getting applications to run under OSX (maybe a program like WINE in Linux)

But what has really happened??

They are now offering mac users a tool to enable them to install Windows!!! The biggest downgrade of the century!

Vista was recently stalled....further driver support for Intel mac's perhaps?!?!

Looks like Micro$oft are eventually going to win.....

Sorry mac guys, you just lost an operating system that was actully good!
