Mac OS doesn't prevent it, it just makes it more difficult, and, if you
aren't really sure what you were doing (and sometimes even if you did),
more dangerous.

If you want a machine to do multitasking with lots of little process doing
lots of little things and servers doing this and that while you play Super
3D Solitaire, listening to 320 kbps MP3s in the background, then Mac OS is
not for you.  Back when Mac OS was designed, no one wanted to do that.  Now
everyone does.  Now there's Mac OS X.  Which also sucks.

Now now, we don't hate each other.  We are capable of only appearing as
though we do.  It's an upgrade.
