Alomex's reference to the MacOS X disaster ... Just to clarify. What I mean by "MacOS X disaster" is that Apple said "here's our new OS --Rhapsody", and developers said "good for you". Then Aple quickly picked up the pieves and changed to a strategy to keep the same APIs while using the Rhapsody kernel. This is a (good) solution to a problem that, ideally, should never even have happened in the first place. The result is that, even if all what Gerry says turns out to be true, it will happen a year too late. Is that bad? yes. Is that critical? Time will tell. (Ironically, now I believe the best thing Apple can do to the Mac is evolve it into a better windows that windows OS).
