Mac OS X Anyone who hangs around on websites with information about installing Mac OS X on non-Apple labelled computers has probably already encountered this report, but it's newsworthy anyway. The upcoming release of Mac OS X 10.6.2 will remove support for the Intel Atom line of processors from Mac OS X.

They dont tell me that I can't run it on any particular OEM hardware, I can just buy a copy of Windows and run it on my hardware...and I'm free to run it on a mac, a dell, hp, sony, even my whitebox computer that I built.

That's freer than anything Apple allows you to do with OSX. A copy of Windows can be activated a certain number of times on different hardware, so I can give my copy to someone else and erase my installation.
