Am I failing to remember? I had had a DMD 5620 at my job, and after I moved to a different place and requested one, they graced me with a Macintosh. It could sort of do multiple windows, but it was like having a piper cub after being used to a 747. Other interesting bits for the Mac to maybe recover would be Mach Ten, which ran Mach on top of regular MacOS. (Talk about inverted pyramids...) There was also a Mach/Linux that I think ran on the Mac at some point.
