Circa 2000 I recall playing with a developers beta version of MacOS X approx 6 months or so pre-release. The move from motorola based power pc chips to x86 already felt a decade too late. And the nextstep & netbsd origins? Very "meh". Apache, Mosaic, Napster all crashing hard requiring system reboots. Apple was playing catch-up to professional grade sgi & sunos (which is what every one was using to build the early web back in those days) ;)

Just so nobody gets confused, x86 support was released in 2006.

I think they might be referring to the transition from 68K to PowerPC.

That happened around 1994-95. By 2000, it was old news.
