‘Mac OS era’

‘MacOS 8’

.

‘SYSTEM 7’

‘SYSTEM 6’

‘SYSTEM 5’

.

(original macintosh computer released on ’24 JANUARY 1984′)

(‘system 1’)

(no official name for the ‘operating system’)

(partialy based on ‘Lisa OS’ for the 1983 ‘lisa’ computer)

.

(the history of macOS – apple’s current mac operating system originally named Mac OS X until 2012 and then OS X until 2016 – began with the company’s project to replace its ‘classic’ Mac OS)

(that system – (up to and including its final release ‘Mac OS 9’) – was a direct descendant of the operating system ‘apple’ had used in its ‘macintosh computers’ since their introduction in ‘1984‘)

(however, the current ‘macOS’ is a ‘unix operating system’ built on technology that had been developed at ‘NeXT’ from the ‘1980s’ until ‘apple’ purchased the company in ‘early 1997’)

(although it was originally marketed as simply ‘version 10’ of the ‘mac OS’ (indicated by the roman numeral “X”), it has a completely different ‘codebase’ from ‘mac OS 9’, as well as substantial changes to its ‘user interface’)

(the transition was a ‘technologically’ + ‘strategically’ significant one)

(to ease the transition, versions through ‘10.4’ were able to run ‘mac OS 9’ + its ‘applications’ in a ‘compatibility layer’)

(it was first released in ‘1999’ as ‘mac OS X server 1.0’, with a widely released ‘desktop version’β€”Mac OS X 10.0β€”following in ‘march 2001’)

(since then, several more distinct ‘desktop’ + ‘server’ editions of ‘macOS’ have been released)

(starting with ‘mac OS X 10.7 lion’, ‘macOS server’ is no longer offered as a separate ‘operating system’)

(instead, ‘server management tools’ are available for purchase as an ‘add-on’)

(starting with the ‘intel build’ of ‘mac OS X 10.5 leopard’, most releases have been certified as ‘unix systems’ conforming to the ‘single unix specification’)

(‘macOS’ has retained the major version number 10 throughout its ‘development history’ to date)

.

(releases of macOS have also been named after ‘big cats’ (versions 10.0–10.8) or ‘california locations’ (10.9–present))
