Does this mean, the I, as a mac programmer can write software that would be able to 'know' that it is running executor, and possibly do executor/386 specific things? I did this on the Mac Emulator for the Atari ST in 1988 - My software was able to determine that it was running under the Mac OS on an Atari and then the software would access the Atari's MIDI port and timer hardware directly. Of course on a real mac it would work as well via the Mac hardware. There are lots of fun things that could be done. But please don't delay 2.0 too much.
