The Macintosh system software is famous for its ease of use and elegant simplicity. However, all operating systems can be complex and tricky, no matter how happy the startup icon looks. You should have a solid reference manual on your desk to find out what you've been missing, what each of those system files is doing at startup, and what you should know if that startup smile appears upside-down.
