osx definatly rules

[choasforages]

ok, in the past i have had experiance on it, but wiht a little bit of hacking, well not much at all, i have 10.1 running my my 9500. osx is well designed, kinda like a mind reader, it does what i want it to, and nothing else. it has a clue about networking, like i can mount nfs shares without fstab info and such. and it runs ok on the 233 604e with 216 megs of ram. im probably going to put a g4 in it and get it up to about 786 megs of ram, with a radeon 7000 pci card in it, and put jaguar on it.

i don't care if i could setup an uber fast amd or intel machine for the money. i already have enough of them and i am skilled enough with normal UN*X. and i also need to learn howto use the more advanced features like the network informatin manager/*well, read on a website to figure out howto get my nfs shares to be mounted at boot*/ and other stuff.

That's impresive, much hacking?

the best I did was Rapsody, well very early OS X Server (Pre OS X). Think it's Rapsody, on a rev a imac with 128 ram.

I heard that Rhapsody was also available for the x86 platform. Anyone know where I could get it?

Now tell me why they couldent keep that interface?

I mean, Aqua is pretty, and nice etc. But it's the only thing that keeps OSX running slow, and lacking backward compatability. What is wrong with a snappy window manager?

[Pissed_Macman]

That interface looks like shit! Go aqua!

I still have the disk, I don't even know if it is actually classifies as Rhapsody.  Actually just found some Rhapsody screen shots

Rhapsody

Mine is definitley OS X Server but looks excatly  the same, except for the Rhapsody boot screen. If you want I can give you a .dmg

[jasonlane]

Yup I got OS X Server 1.2.

[Laukev7]

Is it x86? If it is, does it support nVIDIA graphic cards? I tried OPENSTEP 4.2, and my graphic card was not supported.

[jasonlane]

nope, unfortunately.

this might interest you though:

Hardware support

 

[Laukev7]

Thank you, though I've seen this website. Anyway, I just wondered, because I knew that there was an x86 version of Rhapsody DR2. I just wanted to brag that I had a PC with Mac OS installed.    

Seriously, though, I hope Apple keeps Mac OS X PPC only (at least, for the time being).

[jasonlane]

Well Laukev7 if you ever find it, I like to brag as well
