Methinks Apple knew about X before they told us :P

I thought it was "Real artists ship". As in hurry up and finish Copland you slackers.

Come on folks, the OS X logo has been around for a lot longer than that:

Everyone was a slacker in Steve Jobs' eyes.

Hah, see? They've been seeding us subtle hints about it for over 20 years!

/me obsessively pours through the documentation that caome with his Apple II for messages about OS XI

The system itself appears to be taking up 96 MB.
Do you not manually clean yer System Foddler? I don't keep so much as one preferences file that I don't need - it's one of the great joys of OS less-than-Eggs.

Yeah, I agree that the system is taking up 96 megs. It seems to grow a bit with every app I launch; I noticed that under 9.1 on my 6500.

It starts out around 40 when freshly booted, so It kinda confuses me, but w/e. It can grow 400 more before I'll notice

Well, I mentioned that I'd post if it got any worse. It reached a milestone a while ago, and I just got around to taking a screenshot. 108.8 megs

Yes, I'm running a ton of crap. And who says OS 9 can't multitask?

Foddler, hmmm that just sounds wrong, even pervy. You disgusting System Foddler, you! [] ]'>

Cleaning out the System Folder was is and always will be an utter ball-ache, it's yet another reason i hate OS 7-9. I'll admit though I have had to do it on rare occasion in OS X, mostly sweeping out stuff I'm not using from the Library, but it never causes the system to bloat, it's just good housekeeping in OS X to save on disk space.

No-one. It just does it badly. Windows can multitask after all, but we don't go around praising that do we... [] ]'>

Funny how the thread is turning to multi-tasking. I recently discovered the joys of the F9 key in OS X.

The F11 key is the best one! Like what Dave Cheppell(or whoever it was) said about exposé. You press one key and you could be watching 10 porn videos at once! and if your girlfriend walks you hit this other and they all go away!
