Most of my friends who use macs (none of whom are technical, they're all in the design space) just gave up on trying to get their old software to work with the new version and bought all new software. Compare that with Microsoft where althought they're not officially supported, almost all DOS applications will still run. So if you bought some piece of software in 1988 for DOS 3.0 chances are pretty good that it will run on Vista.
That's great, but nobody in the design space is using 1988-era software on the Mac. In fact, nobody in any space, really.
That doesn't make things much better! If anyone got exploited there, it would be the kids exploited by an eager beaver prosecutor.
Great choice of words, under the circumstances.
