The only question is why would they do that? Steve Jobs is a marketing 
expert, he tweaks all his products in a way to keep 'his own' cash 
registers ringing. Putting linux on his macbook would mean accepting the 
truth that mac sucks and more importantly linux would not add any extra 
zing to his cash registers, instead a free OS would mean people won't 'buy' 
apps from 'him'. These are enough reasons for him to not make this 
'mistake'.

Thats why I call him a bigger devil than Bill Gates. :-)
