- It takes "dirty" work to build the interface between our synthetic CPU
- and the Mac ROMs and System File. The work isn't actually very hard,
- but whoever does it would never be able to work on ROMlib (our
- OS/Toolbox rewrite). This is something we plan to do, but the order
- in which we do things is very important from business and legal
- perspectives.

- Sorry that I don't have the time to go into this more in depth, but
- it's something that we are well aware of over here.
