If we are.. I'll beg off, as I know (in my best Schultz voice) NOTHING
about any Apples prior to 1984.


OS9 as you may know by now, was fairly unix-ish. So it is more similar
to OS X than it was to the other, more recent OS 9.


Whelllll..egg on MY face.
Here I thought I knew what I was talking about.


Well, you _do_ know what you're talking about! You just didn't know
what _we_ were talking about. A subtle but important distinction.
