No, if apple did that, they would kill their hardware sales. And it would be a driver nightmare for them to support third aprty stuff. They won't, I'll predict.

One thing apple should've done is make the switch all at once. That is, if it won't be until 2007 for the powermac, leave the mac mini until then, too, and buy yourself another year of stealth internal development (and don't kill your ppc sales for a year).
