- Perhaps, but don't get your hopes up. The MacOS that they're
- licensing is the one for the PowerPC. We'll need to do a lot of work
- before that will be useful. In addition, Motorola is a *hardware*
- company, so it's quite likely that they'll only sub-license to
- organizations who are buying their hardware (PPC based motherboards).

- After Executor 2 is out the door we'll try once again to talk to
- someone in licensing over at Apple.
