Updating a current updater is probably relatively easy - creating a completely new one to work under OS X is probably a LOT of work. At that point they might just decide to drop support entirely. Which would YOU Prefer, a quick reboot or no updates?
Ignorance seems to be the primary driver of many of these pro-OS X rants. There ARE things that are easier in OS 9. ... if not, I suspect DiskWarrior would have been out for X a year or two ago, along with Quark and a host of other programs.
I am however trying to figure out if there's any need to update for my own machine, which seems to be working well.
Technical constraints - davert
