It starts to look more like something a little more than short-sightedness
when they still impose these limits on an OS that is otherwise quite a
major revision.  Imagine if Apple decided that automatic memory management
really was just a joke played on CS students, and "fixed" OS X so that you
would have to specify how much RAM to allocate to each application. :)
