Huh? You want to see Windoze on a Apple cpu? It's already been done.
Kinda like putting a Coke bottle bottom on your Leica.

Certainly other manufacturers are very capable. I buy my Leica for 
the Leica optics, however, and don't really see the need for fitting
other manufacturer's optics. What would be nice would be if Leica 
lenses could be used on other cameras. 

Sorta like if the MacOS could be used on some other people's hardware.
Now that's being done too.
