     How do they (Apple) do this?  You either have to believe that
MicroSoft delibrately takes shortcuts which they know will compromise
the future integrity of their software, or that Apple Computer Company
does not fully document their operating system, perhaps even
internally.  I know what I believe.  This kind of thing becomes a
serious problem when you consider the small independent third party
developer who has to divert his entire work force from productive
activity because someone at Apple has arbitrarily changed the way
things work, apparently without telling anyone.  Many of these guys, I
am sure, are having serious thoughts about trying restaurant
management, fighting oil rig fires, or ANYTHING less stressful than
Macintosh programming.

Try Geneva 10.
