The point of Marklar was to KEEP it working on Intel. It was a small group, since Intel
was not in the
product roadmap for several more years. How early Intel based Mac hardware existed still
hasn't been
made generally known. I suspect it existed in the portable world before desktops. As far
as desktops
were concerened, all of the product groups I worked with through the end of 2004 were
building only
with PPC.
