I don't care if you believe me or not. I have a relative that is a software engineer at Apple. He has been working on Jaguar 10.2 for the intel platform. I though the IBM machine was running Lynx with a OSX skin, but it was it. None of the drivers work. And right now it only works with an ATI video card. Like I said it is very buggy. Most would consider it an Alpha version.
There is a project called Marklar that has been ongoing inside Apple since the early days of its transition to the Unix-based Mac OS X in the late '90s.
In December 1996, Apple acquired NeXT Software Inc. and its Intel-compatible OpenStep operating system. Under the company's "Rhapsody" OS strategy, it planned to base the next-generation Mac OS on OpenStep, shipping an Intel version to provide a cross-platform development environment. While developer previews of Rhapsody for Intel were released, it was never shipped to customers. The ones that customers did get was OSX.
