- Since languages support environments rather than computers or companies, perhaps this link should be named Mac OS X instead. After all, there is no "Apple Computer". The corporation runs no code, and Apple made many incompatible computers (Apple ][, Mac OS Classic, Newton, Mac OS X). --IanOsgood 10:13, 11 January 2008 (MST)
