Because then I would have a HUGE choice of hardware options to go with my choice of operating systems. The lack of hardware choice has been the one thing that has always prevented me from buying a Mac. If I want a faster processor, I don't want to have to spend $400 or $500 to get a moderate speed upgrade (G4 prices).

Actually, I wish BeOS had become popular, but the lack of software made it difficult to use on a daily basis.
