It's interesting how OS X doesn't have a fallback 'classic mode' unlike XP.

Maybe that's because OS X users are less inclined to sit on Apple forums b*tching about changes to the UI? ![]()
More importantly, there are only a handful of machines on which OS X is officially supported on. Which means it's very easy for Apple to try it out across the range and be sure that performance is acceptable. Windows is in a much harder realm because you can never be entirely sure what combination of hardware it's going to encounter. So there is always a trade off around supporting the bottom end of the hardware spectrum.
