D'oh!  I never managed to get any first-hand experience with A/UX,
unfortunately.  I'm really suprised - seems a dumb way to do it.  Is my
impression correct that after A/UX boots MacOS applications run on top of
A/UX (not like MachTen where a MacOS app runs as a peer to MachTen)?
Does A/UX have a booter, or an extension?  (Apple should make A/UX a free
unsupported download now, I'd love to play with it... :)
