I too have ranked The Far Side right up there with C&H for years, and then for Christmas somebody bought me a gigantic collection of Far Side strips (don't remember which one), and I've gotta say TFS really hasn't held up all that well. Yes, there are some classic gems that are damn funny still, but on the whole it's pretty meh. Unlike C&H, which is going to be fresh for many decades--perhaps centuries--to come.

Dude, think a little harder.

This will NOT be a hard transition for apple and they get:
(1) a chipmaker that can meet demand
(2) a chipmaker that is going to keep innovating with the rest of the market (look at their lack of a powerbook g5 from ibm!)
(3!) a platform that is going make people say "why not try a mac" -- if they don't like mac apps for some reason, they can still run all of their windows applications at NATIVE speeds or they can install windows over os x -- or dual boot.

I really can't think about one reason for Apple to not go through with this -- and it's too late for them to take it back. I'm happy. More people WILL be leaving the Windows platform.
