Not only is this an insanely cool project, the writeup is great. I was hooked the whole way through. I particularly love this part:

I'm surprised by how well abstracted MacOS is (was). The I/O Kit abstraction layers seemed to actually do what they said. A little kudos to the NeXT developers for that.
