no need for master
Authored by: gospodin_david on May 16, '02 03:15:44PM

I think that the issue is really that OS X adds (finally) real hardware abstraction. That is to say that it doesn't programs other than the kernel and its extentions touch anything. It's like how a lot of hardware firmware updaters on the IBM/PC platform make you use DOS instead of Windows. In other words OS 9 runs without any protection from anything (which, incidentally is the main reason why it's faster).
