Jobs say Intel! Ballmer says meh

As all the rumors that have past over the weekend have proven true (If you missed it, Apple is moving away from PowerPC processors to Intel chips, as told by cNet)
What this means for consumers is not certain, however, Steve Ballmer says that it will not affect the sale of windows in a significant way, again, as reported by cNet.

Hopefully, this has the potential for user to install OSX on a standard PC, as hinted by Jobs, "Mac OS X has been leading a secret double life the past five years." If this is true, we may finally see some real competition in the desktop OS market (I wouldn't mind OSX on my Toshiba laptop, nor would I mind Windows Longhorn on a iMac G5, and Linux on all!). But, again, that is pure speculation on my part.
