Mac OS X arrived in style in the early months of 2001.
Mac OS X (pronounced Mac OS Ten, by the way) is Apple's phenomenonally
advanced operating system for the future of Macintosh.
|
|
Mac OS X has its foundations in a meld of the popular Macintosh Operating System (whose
lineage goes back to the early 1980s) and the very much ahead-of-its-time
NextStep operating system developed by Next Computers in the late 1980s.
|
|
Mac OS X brings us advanced software development technology and imaging models,
making it the premier choice for software developers and graphic designers alike.
|
|
In Mac OS X, you now have
the power and stability of the UNIX operating system,
the ease of use of the Macintosh and NextStep user interfaces, powerful object-oriented
programming capabilities using both Objective-C and Java, and a graphics imaging model based
on Adobe Systems Portable Document Format (PDF).
|
|
Trilithon Software started developing software for NextStep in 1990, and continues
this long development history into the new and advanced Mac OS X.
