I had a flash of evil brilliance!

OS X Tiger: Core Audio, Core Video, Core Data

Intel: new Core Processors

Was the switch in the works a long time ago?

Am I hallucinating?

Uh, OS X has always been developed for Intel as well as PPC.

I think "Core" just happens to be an appropriate word for those technologies (and it's catchy).

EvilMoe could possibly be on to something, although for that to be true one would have to believe Apple knew about the eventual product name for Yonah long before it leaked to the public.

Personally I find it hilarious that you have the hots for my gramma. Especially seeins how she is 3x your age, and makes your Brittney-Spears-wannabe 30-something wife look like a rag doll who went thru WWIII with a burning stick of dynamite up her a** :)

According to Steve Jobs, there have been builds of OSX running on Intel processors since the 10.0 days, if not even sooner. Even before then, though, rumors of a Mac port to Intel date all the way back to System 7, supposedly under the code name "Star Trek".
