Intel Developer Tools to run on Macs

This week Intel is holding the Intel Developer Forum which is basically their version of Apple's World Wide Developers' Conference. During this forum Intel makes numerous announcements and talks about their road maps with all their developers.

Intel took this opportunity to announce that they will be porting their development tools to OS X to help developers write code for the new Intel based Macs. The Intel tools will be plugins for Apple's XCode, however, they will not support Objective C (aka Cocoa). They will support a migration path from Metroworks something Apple is not doing. Then again, Intel's tools will not create the so called 'Fat binaries,' executables that can run on both PowerPC and Intel based Macs.

We live in interesting times.
