No system is actually truly capable of this, with the exception of the

hand tricks to partially achieve the result with a decrease of security
to boot.

IMO it is the Microsoft and CO. tactics how to eliminate concurency - Unix,
Mac... They never tried to be better...
Hah! They didn't need to. The guys who designed Unix finally wound up their work once ported, and then said "we can do a lot better now" and Plan9 was born. The change was too dramatic for commerce to change for supposedly little reward, and so Plan9 was left on the backburner while a lot of its features were integrated into other *nix platforms (rc, file based devices, etc).

So in a way they did try to be better, but not exactly with the original designers blessing. And Plan9 is still an immature child... shame.
