Why?
Win 95, 98, XP are all one license, right? So why would OS 9 and
OS X be separate?
Probably because the Mac builds are two separate engines, which
require different compiles and separate amounts of time and resources
to put together. They really are different products and they need to
be downloaded separately. Combined in the OS 9 engine are versions
that work with both 68K and PPC versions of Mac OS; so for classic Mac
you actually get dual duty.
The Windows product is a single unified engine, requiring only one
build cycle, that works with all Win32 products. If it were possible
to combine Classic Mac OS and OS X into a single engine, then the Mac
engine would more closely approximate the Windows engine -- but this
can't be done.
