Correct me if i'm wrong, but, the "rhapsody server software"
or the Mac OS X server software (due out soon), does include the unix kernal
and is a totally redesigned Mac OS, not just a gradual growth from 8.1 or 8.5.

        Dear Al:

        You are confusing "Rhapsody," NeXTStep, and OS X...

        NeXTStep was Steve Jobs' OS based on the Mach kernel (Carnegie Mellon) UNIX;

        "Rhapsody" was supposed to be Apple's implementation of NeXTStep, with the
Yellow Box and Blue Box;

        OS X is simply a cleaned up extension of MacOS 8... It has nothing to do
with any form of UNIX.

        Just another form of Jobs' doubletalk... OS X is still the MacOS; and more
importantly lacking NT's, OpenVMS,' and UNIX' protected memory and
multitasking.
