| Virtualization or emulation as such is nothing new for Apple. Projects like 
| Mac-on-Linux allow running a virtualized Mac OS X on non-Apple PowerPC 
| hardware like the Amiga One or Genesi PowerPC based hardware. But this did 
| not really hurt Apple, because such hardware was too exotic to cause too much 
| headaches in Cupertino.

| It wasn't until later, giving the same presentation at Linux World that
| I'd missed giving at the Apple show, that I realized that Apple were
| scared of the SuSE Linux desktop I was using. They didn't want 
| customers to see anything other than Apple-badged everything at
| their show. Especially if it was something better. They were
| scared of their customers even seeing a choice.
