Actually it's great for intel as building processors for the age old PC architecture is like beating a dead horse.
Finally they will be able to reach their full potential and try out alternate chip designs.
OS X have run on intel processors for a long time in the test labs, so they are ready to roll. Not too much OS X reprogramming. As for BlitzMax it's just another exe in the OS X executable package build automatically :)
And also. Breaking compability between new hardware versions is the way to go as it's the compability that screws everything up. My P4 kan run x86 real mode like a 286 for christ sake :)
They did this on the amiga too and it rocked!
