***CONFIRMED*** APPLE MOVES TO INTEL - X86!

Yeah, Apple's current market share just won't cut it. This is a slap in Bill's face. Let's face it, we all stuck with MS cuz of the cheap hw. Well, at least in my case. Heck, I would love to use OX instead of this old crap. This is great, cheap Dells and OSX. what a combo. :D

Unreading text from text file

Textpad shows it's ANSI - PC. Tried converting to DOS but it doesn't do anything. Is there a way to translate this? I assume it would be ASCII? Thanks.
