Outmoded Resources

Prior to the NewWorld architecture, many resources in the ROM existed in the System Folder as well, often as replacements that fix or enhance those in the ROM, but sometimes merely because the ROM resources have not yet been removed from the ROM. With the NewWorld approach, any resources that are not needed early in the boot sequence are no longer in the Mac OS ROM Image, and only the resources from the System Folder are in use.
