Go with OS X for strategic reasons - you'll be where the established and the new app vendors are spending their money. This may well affect your own personal coompetitiveness as an individual (or am I demented?). OS X will have a long life - invest - and reap. Buildng on a firmer base, OS X will grow taller than OS 9 ever could. Getting in, building your own ground floor of understanding will he;p you in the onslaught of further OS X developments - even more than we saw in the last generation.
As to what X already does better (and others can add to this): Multi-tasking (tell me you don't want to do more of it). Access to more competent, colorful and growing apps (you'll need them). Time saving features such as keychain (time isn't important to you?). Extended controls over old CP's, e.g. Sound now allows L-R balance. Encourages a healthy "try and break it" attitude, pushing the productivity envelope. Or, stick with OS 9 - it's quite fine (as in delicate). Good luck - you're still a Mac user. Tom Meade P.S. When I went to mail this, my session had timed out - but unlike Netscape, which means your composition is lost, a simple "back" in Safari contained the writiing.
