From the AppleInsider forum comes an interesting discovery about ZFS and Apple. A user who has the Leopard WWDC preview searched the system with Spotlight and found a mention of ZFS. He says: "There is no file system bundle for it, nor is there a mount utility or any other one (no fsck, now newfs, etc.). There is, however, a changed vnode.h."

there is nomore WindowsXP or even Windows2000 support for anything but x86/x86_64/Itanium. And since the kernel evolved since NT3.5 and NT4 I am pretty sure MS does not care for the other archs anymore.
Well, I'm afraid they cared a lot for the PPC architecture: the apple G5s were recently used as developer systems for the Xbox360. Looks like they ran a streamlined NT kernel derived from the mentioned NT version for PPC (Motorola and other RISC machines, not Apple's).
