My 8500 is a unsupported system for OS X but by running OS X with XPostFacto it is imitating a supported system. Therefore the 8500 is imitating or emulating a for real OS X capable machine.

For me it is no different when i boot into OS X in my G4 and then run OS 9 in "Classic" mode , as i understand it, the OS 9 "Classic" is running within OS X and it is emulating OS 9 and really not running what i call the "for real OS 9" which is why so many of my midi/audio programmes die when running in "classic" . But if i boot directly into OS 9 those very same programmes work.

No doubt you are more knowledgeable about the world of computers then i am and my wording obviously upset you. Sorry about that my friend.
