I can't be the only one to find this whole thing terribly funny, though, can I? Ironically, I mean -- in that it's one of the Mac evangelists' worst nightmares.

Me, I couldn't give a toss whose chipset my OS runs on (indeed recent and expensive attempts to convert myself to a Maccie reveal that actually I couldn't give much of a toss which OS it is either), but there's a big pride element amongst the fiercely loyal / hardcore Maccies, and this will hit them hard. I expect many will feel an element of betrayal, about which I can empathise.
