[X Newbies] Diskwarrior and OS X

[Bill Reburn]

Here is something sort of funny

I had a friend who believed - and shared the information with many - that as
of January 1, 2003 - OS9 would simply refuse to boot on any machine at any
time ever again (even if you set your clock back).

So if you did not have OSX yet - you should go buy it and if you didn't, you
would be in for a big surprise come that particular Wednesday morning.

Priceless.
