Just to clarify, OS X runs on BSD Unix, not Linux. Also, Apple has had an Intel version of OS X ready with each new build of the OS so it's pretty obvious that had been thinking about switching for quite some time. OS X is based off of OPENSTEP, which was the OS that Jobs' company was working on when he left Apple. It ran natively on Macs, SPARC, as well as Intel so it wasn't very difficult for Apple to just keep the Intel support in the OS. Pretty smart of them to keep their options open like that.
