If you don't care about robustness, sure. But like I said earlier,
we're going round and round in circles. Yes, Apple understands that
the switch to launchd has caused a few IT professions grief as they
find themselves caught in the middle of the legacy software clashing
with modern OS design, but we hope that pain will be temporary.

I just worry that the attitude displayed towards existing practice will show
up in future revisions.

To chime in my $0.02 here, I actually appreciate to see some old technologies marked as deprecated. The entire QuickDraw machinery is another example.


Mac OS X in it's current state is so incredibly complex; it's a relief to see some redundant stuff going away in the long term. Redundant as in duplicated code as well as in running processes rarely needed.

As much as I see some confusion right now, I'm just sure nobody will noticeable bother when StartupItems actually go away in 2009.
