So....back when OS X was first introduced, it was completely trouble free and no one had any problem with it whatsoever? Every program (including third party ones) written for OS 9 was also immediately available for OS X and worked flawlessly? All third party peripherals connected without a hitch? No one had the need to boot into OS 9 to use certain programs? Did all the Apple faithful say "wow, this is the greatest operating system I've ever seen! I couldn't imagine going back to OS 9!"
