iPods Run OSX Too

The fact that the iPhone runs OS X has been of some interest. It turns out that iPods already run OS X, well at least "a Mach kernel and a Unix userland". Given the memory limitations, iPods don't run Cocoa. The last section of the article on the future of an embedded OS X is a bit overstated but it's still interesting.

Update: Nope it's fake, I have to stop reading slashdot.
