> Neither of these two sentences makes any sense for me. "Carbon" originally meant "the Classic Mac OS Toolbox APIs, as adapted to work on OS X". But Apple has been evolving the meaning, by rebranding those parts of the APIs that will live on in 64-bit and beyond to be "Core" APIs, while "Carbon" becomes "that which used to supported for transition to OS X but is no longer being developed." To a large extent now "Core" is lower-level stuff, and "Carbon" is UI stuff, but of course "Carbon" also contains dregs of ancient stuff that is lower-level but won't move on because it's pointless--consider parameter block routines in the File Manager for instance.
