3. And there would be a point to actually doing this? |
|
Because last I checked, Windows XP-compatible laptops are far cheaper than MacBook Pros.

6. Because it's not a Mac if it doesn't have SCSI, Motorola CPU, and |
|
a ground-up proprietary OS on it.
Why nix SCSI for IDE (mid-90s)?
Motorola for Intel (not AMD) (2005)?
Why nix their own OS for picking apart glorified freeware (FreeBSD) (2004 or whenever OS X came out)?
The Mac died a long time ago...
