No that was Java and it is still in there, it because Sun does not want to be responsible for any mistake that happens, if Java runs a nuclear power plant.
One there is a license for law, plumbing, electriction, and school teacher (only really public schools) because there effect your life, but a software engineer does not, at least in a direct way.
If software engineers were required to be licensed, you will not get the best guy for the job, instead you will a guy who is much older and might not know what they are doing (even with a license).
Windows does not have a standard look and feel, each application feels different, only on a Mac you find a standard look and feel across each application. Just look at IE and PowerPoint, they have different feels to them on is easy to find stuff in but they both have their preferences in different places.
On MacOS X the preferences is always in the Application menu; in Classic it is always in the Edit menu.
The About box is always in the applications menu for both.
Linux is just an OS for study, not for real work, but even Linux is now harder to read than the *BSD.
The *BSD were designed by researchers for researchers in mind and has always been ahead of Linux due to that; it is clean, older, have a better VM, more hardware support, even some support from Microsoft, and a huge support from Apple.
Linux only have support from IBM but that is only marketing, no real coding going on there.
One problem Linux is that it is only the Kernel nothing more, you need a set of libraries, glibc, and other utils, more from GNU (some have been browed from BSD).
You cannot study (college or higher) an OS without the support libraries and applications.
You are totally wrong about the file system. In 9 you could call some of the File API in MP threads. In 8.6 these threads did not need be on a different processor than the main one.
The things you couldnot use was for PB. We will not know if you can use them in 1.0 until it comes out. Don't listen to all these rumors from ZDNet, et. ceta.

There is no such thing now as C++ comments, there are all C99 comments.
One more thing C99 includes inline, too.

It is Ada, not ADA.
Ada is named for a person.

Most programs in UNIX to install depend on install scripts and most of the do not understand how to handle what a space is.
Even autoconf has problems. Apache 3.0 alpha had problems where you could not configure it if the directory contained any spaces.
So most UNIX do not think any one would be stupid enough to have spaces in the directory's name.

Solaris is already for x86, look it up before posting
Have you ever heard of the linux-emulation for the *BSD?
What about Having Linux, no longer being just a kernel and define an userland programs.
GCC is going to have a new register acculator soon, at least there is a branch on the cvs for it. I heard it is very good.
Wrong, only the finder has that limit any more.
In 9.0, there was new API to be able to use 255 unichar names (but only on HFS+ volumes).
No, Java sucks, I meant Objective-C.
A language that both combines smalltalk and C is problely a better language than a language based on C or one based on smalltalk.
What could this mean for Mac OS X, they might be able to support PPC/Linux applications now?
For LINUX to survive I would say they need to be one standard for startup scripts, no more messy sv4 or bsd, your own.

read the second line down, or so, they say just to go to netbsd anyway.
Actually AIX was first on PPC64.
Also most people cannot just buy new hardware, that is why NetBSD is ported to the VAX, but why not LINUX?
It orginaly came from ZDNet, so they are just copying.

The API for MP is part of Carbon, so go back into you hole. Another thing it is user friendly, just as much as pthreads is.
That is because Apple turned off corn dumbs for the avagerage user.
This post is so true.
