the reason I have ventured into the 'QEMU' thing was expressed by member FBz 100% correctly.
OK, I'll get off the tangents.īack to the topic. Sure DOS was great, sure it ran stable, and setting up business networks and Novell servers, Word perfect 5.1 as a production marvel with virtually no maintenance. Even the G3/G4 hardware of the era became a perfect balance of 'art' and 'engineering', pushing all sorts of envelopes, while IBM PCs were just kinda boring. That being said, Mac OS 9 in particular, has always had a place in my heart, and will always be unique, there is a perfect balance of art and functionality that is intrinsically 'baked' into it's core. These efforts are based on finding solutions, not replacing or core values.Īs you guys know, or may not know, I am an old guy old and I have been exposed to computers from Commodore PET, IBM mainframes, and Unix terminals in my teens to contemporary PCs and Macs today.
After getting a few PMs from our core members, I felt I should explain my affinity for always pushing the Mac OS 9 realm (and OS X for that matter) into unsanctioned areas.
