Hi all, I know that mac OS 9.1 was named limelight and 9.2 was named moonlight. I don't know what the others were before that. Also, here is a great web site that talks about old school macs and their current uses today. There's also a lot of older articles you can click through and read. http://www.lowendmac.com Also, here's the youtube video link for the mac OS 9 funeral. note: the audio is quite loud on this movie. and there is some organ music before Steve Jobbs begins talking. I think this was an intro to the mac world convention.
here's the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl7xQ8i3fc0 On Apr 18, 2009, at 7:40 PM, Alex Jurgensen wrote: > > Hi, > > They had no names as far as I remember. > > Mac OS 11.0 "Chocolate Lab" A.K.A.
