- According to an article in the 8/24/92 edition of MacWeek, Guarino was
- wrong when he said Taligent's OS won't run Mac applications right away. This
- information is attributed to 'sources', which doesn't say a lot for it's
- reliability, but the article goes on to say that the SW developers' kit
- for Taligent OS seeded prior to the OS ship date won't have full OS/2,
- AIX capability, but might do System 7.
-
- On a related note: I thought of a good name for the Taligent OS. Let's call it
- Taligent's Comprehensive Operating System, or Tacos. :-}
