This cannot be true.

This cannot be true. Apple is a hardware company...they make the vast majority of their money from selling hardware. They have to provide some software, such as the OS, because they chose to carry out a closed platform. Now I do firmly believe that somewhere deep inside Apple, they do have OSX running on x86 hardware, but I don't think OSX will ever be sold to run on x86 computers. If this day ever comes, this will be a sign of the apocalypse...that Apple is not being serious anymore and won't be around much longer.

Apparently you haven't heard of PearPC.

That's one thing it's really good for. Making stupid "what the heck?" screenshots.
