Apple is already gearing up for a major marketing campaign for the holidays, and if they're able to ramp up demand, and then deliver the system when they say it will be delivered, it could trump Microsoft in a way that Apple's CEO Steve Jobs would crow about for years.

I own an Athlon 64 3400+ that I built. It runs XP Pro and whatever Linux Distro I am playing with at the time. Mostly SuSE and Kubuntu.
I also own a MacBook, a PowerBook G4, a Dell Inspiron 5150, and a home built AMD Sempron 3100+ based box (SuSE 10.1) as a file server.
The MacBook was bought last month and is fantastic, at the refurb price of $949 it cost the same or less then anything similar to it, and I don't care about iLife. The first thing I do is remove half of that stuff.
XP has it's good points, is just better I think. The closest I can find for usability is KDE once I have customized it. XP just doesn't offer that yet, and with the next release of OS X and the addition of multiple desktops (available now for XP in powertoys, but it blue screened me several times) I honestly think at least for me, the windows boxes will be relegated to strickly being gaming machines.
