Apparently those random crashes were often caused by hardware memory corruption. I remember one manual basically said something like "if this error happens, don't worry about it, it probably won't happen much". And then you would see it for the third time that day.

Where'd you read that? Doesn't seem likely. Everyone knew it was because MacOS didn't have memory protection at the time...

As for me, I switched to the Mac. It's got grep, pipes, SED scripts, all there when I need them.

MAC is already UNIX man, isnt it?

Not in 1994 it wasn't.

One of the authors was a NeXTstep freak, so I suspect Don Norman can also live with himself.
