".......rather than adding any pointless eye candy....."
hmmm... pointless eye candy? that would more likely be that other company releasing a certain longhorned operating system at the end of next year
but yeah seriously though there has definitely been alot of threading discussions going on on these boards re: mach microkernel ~~ i'd venture though that since according to some reports apple is lusting hard after intel's dualcore offerrings, they'll look at threading very carefully leading up to the macintel unveiling.
they simply cannot afford getting beat down by benchmarks running important windows or linux apps on exactly the same hardware.
the first macintel powerbook will most likely be dualcore, is my shot in the dark.
I guess you never saw MacOS X Server 1.0 - that gui was sexy with a nice old school charm to it :-)
