Don't really know how to answer your question.  Yes, I believe a 
standard port system will be introduced with Panther, because I saw it 
as an annouced feature on one of Apple's pages.  Yes, I believe that 
any such system "blessed" by Apple would carry a massive amount of 
impetus if it's reasonably effective.  So, yes, I have reason to 
believe otherwise.  I guess we'll find out in two weeks.
