On 28 April 1999, Joe Abley proclaimed: > This all sounds very non-unixy. But I don't really know why. Because it's exactly what the Mac has been doing for over a decade. I don't think that there's anything terribly wrong with the idea. In fact, it's good we are making use of the facilities that our ELF changeover has bought us.
