I'm lying in bed at 4:27 AM trying desperately to get a handle on all of the potential possibilities and ramifications of Apple's announcement yesterday that Macintosh computers can now run Windows XP or XP Pro. I'm amazed, excited, a little nervous, but more so than anything else, motivated to get my hands on an Intel Mac and try out this new software:

In the short term, this is a BIG win-win situation for both Apple and Microsoft. The long term ramifications mean HUGE marketshare gains for Apple and Mac OS X, and potential marketshare losses for Microsoft Windows. 
 
Yesterday was the start of a new era in personal computing. I'm sure of it.
