This wouldn't fly; a dual-OS situation is more complexity than Apple would like to expose. If anything, it's more likely that ARMs start popping up on the Mac.

This wouldn't fly; a dual-OS situation is more complexity than Apple would like to expose. If anything, it's more likely that ARMs start popping up on the Mac. Remember that Apple has a reasonable amount of control over ARM, where they have to take whatever Intel gives them for x86.
- dharma1 14y agoOSX running on ARM? I don't think that would fly, not enough horsepower and you'd have to rewrite/recompile all legacy apps, exactly the problem Win8 RT has with ARM. If x86 mobile SoC's do improve as much as Intel thinks over ARMin the next 1-2 years, will be interesting where that leaves Apple and iOS.
