Review: A group walks Mac OS


The small fine jade saw had the family overseas station to review the apple operating system, therefore the small fine jade also simply translated probably. But will translate later me suddenly to remember somebody\’s words, therefore the ideological struggle was very intense: Is actually puts to the home page puts the forum? CB is the report about IT all information, is an information and the knowledge collection platform, this MAC OS review and the introduction can only be a small knowledge expansion, is willing you to be able while to glance over the newest software and information can obtain some knowledge, this is I hoped that sees. Must sleep, the brain was very chaotic …..

System 7.1 are also first has not given the wheat Chinta computer\’s first operating system by the apple free present, the beforehand operating system regarding the old users is “the free promotion”. At that time this was a new matter, caused many users the disaffections, the apple to be compelled the price to fall to USD 30.


Mac OS 8.0

Mac OS 8.1
Mac OS 8.1 issued in January 19, 1998 that a biggest news is brand-new HFS Plus (Mac the OS expansion) the information management system management system. In addition, this operating system is regarding the non-PowerPC Apple Computer\’s last operating system, from 8.5, must use Mac OS 8.5, must have PowerPC Mac.


Mac OS 8.5
on October 17, 1998 issued Mac OS 8.5 have added on the formidable Sherlock procedure.

Article: Mac OS 9 glances

Convenience Sherlock 2 search engines
   Sherlock 2, are Mac a OS 9 luminescent spot. Not only it can search on the local hard disk\’s document, as well as in these document specific text. When may also on the fast search Internet the user be interested the news, the character and the commodity, the search may divide the channel (similar resources constitution group), carries on the search in the massive homepages, but the result may concentrate places in a window, so that you quite can choose. In addition, this edition also has from eBAY this kind of website, the search auction information function. Must want to buy the cheap high-quality goods? Heh heh, promotes to Mac OS 9!

   Formidable multiuser management
   Perhaps you have fashionable terminal velocity Mac, but, the good thing wants everybody share, such words, the multiuser management function was very important. Or, the computer will become pot gruel randomly. Uses Mac OS 9, it may become Mac multi-Taiwan, lets play the game, to do the research, to copy and so on users, has own personal document, the surfer establishment, the system and the application procedure hypothesis separately. After starting, enters that computer which one have custom-made. What is more marvelous, Mac OS 9 provide the speech recognition function, can register user\’s sound achievement “the password”, you only need treat the computer saying that “the tiddler has come”, then may enter the system, but other people actually cannot accomplish, like this thoroughly prevented other people to assume a false name to register.

   Easy to use “key chain”
   The multi-people use in common a computer, will bring the multi-accounts, the multi-password question inevitably. If each place knocks the key input, will be the very annoying matter. New “the key chain” may take care of each user many accounts and the password, and stores up them safely. After the user success enters the system, he may enter these automatically the password protection place, like email, Web website, file server as well as personal document and so on, but has no need again 11 inputs. At the same time, a system\’s safety performance spot has not reduced. This is “the key chain” mysterious function!

   Advanced on-line and automated function
   Mac OS 9 use the advanced encryption technology to carry on the password protection to the document, the user may become adaptable conveniently theirs Mac on Internet\’s file server, other people utilize the simple dragging and drop and dropping operation, then may share these documents and the folder.
   At the same time, Mac OS 9 built-in Internet AppleScript, not only may let the computer complete the task which automatically the user assigns, like the file printout, the window have custom-made and so on, moreover may let many Mac machine connect the joint operation through the Internet. Mac the OS 9 network browsers cause to seek for the file server, the FTP server and the Web server, is equally simple with the choice local printer.

   Speed engine accelerator    If you have newest Power Mac fortunately the G4 computer, according to Apple Company\’s suggestion, 9 carries on the suitable optimization to Mac OS, displays the speed engine\’s performance fully, certain multimedia expansion procedure (for example QuickTime) will display splendidly.

   “mixing colors expert” ColorSync 3.0
   The Apple Company provides the color correction tool, it may make the automatic control to the ColorSync monitor color, causes the image in the input, the demonstration, the output procedure, color more perfect unification. This is also Mac OS one of 9 time important promotion. The new function including improves the AppleScript support and the work flow contact surface, preserves, derives the work flow establishment ability, has provided one kind of new adjustment expert assistant pattern and one uses in assigning the equipment and the documents appearance high-level control panel.    Generally speaking, Mac OS this promotion, has in many aspects improves greatly, may cause your present\’s Mac computer overall performance large scale enhancement. Especially in the network function aspect, said that Mac OS 9 are “the Internet bombardier-navigator”, deserves. Regarding the web cam, formidable Mac OS 9 with the fashion Apple Computer\’s perfect combination, is without doubt has a good swim the Internet sea, the feeling time pulse\’s most advantageous tool.


Mac OS X

Mac the OS X use based on the BSD Unix essence, and brings the Unix style the memory management and the grab type multitaskings (pre-emptive multitasking). The big improvement memory management, the permission simultaneously moves more softwares, moreover materially eliminated a procedure collapse to cause the possibility which other procedures collapsed. This is also first includes “the command line” pattern Mac OS, only if carries out the independent terminal tool procedure, otherwise you possibly forever could also not see. But, these new characteristic need more system resources, X can support above G3 according to official view Mac OS the new processor (it to carry out quite slowly on early G3 processor). Mac OS X has a compatible level to be responsible to carry out the obsolete Mac application procedure, the named Classic environment (is also “the blue box which” the programmer knew very well [the blue box]). It system\’s complete copy takes old Mac OS the 9.x Mac a OS X mile program execution, but the execution application procedure\’s compatibility can only guarantee the procedure will write in good situation not to have the accident the very much under the current hardware

Lowest system request
PowerPC G3 above processor
128 MB memories
1.5 GB hard disk space
But, the process promotes Kada to the lowest system request machine, as well as initial PowerBook G3, cannot move Mac OS X. In addition, early Power Macintosh G3 and iMac G3 must X install Mac OS in the first 8 GB hard disk space.

The more OS X system\’s information small fine jade is editing ……..
