And it signals a green light to those who were postponing development of products for Mac OS X.
Also another archtectre for x86 Linux to support :)
I am mostly interested to hear if they are cool and quiet, or a little hot under the covers.

I didn't have yet the opportunity to try one of these new computers. I suppose there won't be any major difference from the outside.
Having an Intel architecture won't solve every problems of development. Write software for MacOS X will still be totally different from a Windows software and will requirement the same amount of work.
But virtualization software like VMware will be able to run x86 system at full speed, that's a good news.
Talking about Linux, Ubuntu already runs perfectly on PPC Macs, they have already all the drivers working. Switching to Intel won't be too hard, the system architecture is not so different.
