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.

[quote]Of course, Apple has no obligation whatsoever to look out for Atom users[/quote]

Or any other user that isn't on their hardware, and good on them.
It's their OS they can do whatever they like with it, just like Microsoft can do whatever they like with their OS.

Exact same reason why they can do anything they want with iTunes, it's their program and it's not their job to handle support for devices like Blackberry.
