By the way, the OP forgot to mention another point:

� Permissions Suck.


I guess because the TETENAL doesn't agree with permissions being a nuisance (like the vast majority of us). Permissions were integrated into HFS long before OS X, it is not something that magically appeared in OS X. (AFAIK Copland was a multi-user OS, too.)

If you take a look at what happens in the windows world, a big big weakness is XP Home Edition is the lack of permissions. Every virus/worm compromises the whole machine.
