Post Intel-Based Macs to be released on 666

Taiwan market: Apple’s “Intel inside” Macintosh to hit shelves on June 6

I'm a little disappointed that the release date has been postponed. I was hoping the new models would be released on the rumored date of January 2006.

I can't wait to see this models running Windows apps.

I would rather wait for the x86 version of Mac OS X to hit the shelves.

Not gonna happen. You will, however, be able to run OS X on virtually any computer with hardware that can handle it by acquiring a hacked version of it illegally. You can do it now with the leaked devkits, but it isn't very functional.

You will however, most likely be able to dual boot both windows and osx on the new macs coming out. I just hope apple starts coming out with a wider variety of hardware.
