  • This is history!

  • Classic was the direct successor to the Blue Box. Blue box was, from the start, a virtualized box of Mac OS even in Rhapsody... see any article on the internet! Reimplementation of (parts of) classic API on top of Mach is what's called Carbon.

  • @csiew23 pretty much yea

Then each classic application could run in it's own address space with memory protection and multitasking like DOS apps under OS/2.
