I have been using Macs since the OS 7.5.5 days, and ever since, i can't stop exploring this ever expanding realm of macs. I have since grown my collection to 16 Macs, most of them G4 machines and most of them bought in this year. I do miss the old days when System 7 was the flagship, so I keep my Power Mac 6100 downstairs along with some other macs that run OS 7.6, some run OS 7.5.3, others run tiger or OS 9.1. I use mostly Leopard machines nowadays, but i do keep one System 7 machine in reach just in case i need to take a trip down memory lane. I never messed around with NeXTstep too much back in those days, i stuck with Mac OS and Systems.... until I ran into "Rhapsody". I installed it on my Power Mac G3 Gossamer, and was surprised that what used to be NeXTstep all looks like mac os platinum.... That was the first time i ever thought that this would be the base for Mac OS 9.0 or OS 10.
NeXTstep was bought out by Apple in the late OS 6 days... if i am correct. If Apple was already undergoing plans for OS X in those days, can imagine Apple making plans already for Mac OS XI 11.0 or Mac OS 11. or maybe even better, System 11. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
