At the most selfish level, I have four PowerPC PowerBooks to sell. Their useful life has now been considerably shortened. The other element is that I had bought in on Apple's profession that PowerPC is a better choice. I don't know of any better alternatives, so it's not like I will switch from Apple. There are certainly bright sides to it, though; Linux will most likely run easier on PowerBooks now. It was more shock than anger. At the most selfish level, I have four PowerPC PowerBooks to sell.
