But that didn't start until the iMacs. I've had tons
of Macs -- 68k and PPC -- and I never ran into a
machine-specific installer until the iMacs. I've had
CDs labelled for the 6116CD or MacTV or Powerbook 540c
or whatever but I could always get a different system
on them. Even PowerComputing machines.
