Wasn't it not so long ago Steve Jobs had that "the soul of Apple is the OS" or something to that effect speech?

It makes me wonder of the intel marrage was conditional on the ability of the chipsets to boot Windows. The volume of Mac users alone is probably not as driveable a developement force on the hardware side for intel. Perhaps the inticement of hardware focused Apple (Windows users who love the look and feel of Apple) fans to expand the Mac market was the dealbreaker in getting intel in bed with Apple.
