Paranoid Marvin Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Mac OS 9 is coming, and it’s going to make your Mac more powerful—and more Internet-friendly—than ever before. Designed to be your co-pilot on the Internet, Mac OS 9 is packed with over 50 new features. OS9 is released on the 23rd of October, 1999, so make sure you have a suitable computer! The minimum specs are: Mac OS-based Apple computer with a Power PC processor 32MB of physical RAM, with virtual memory set to at least 40MB And for you lucky folks that have just bought the new super fast 500mhz Power Mac G4, you're going to have to hold on tight, as the G4 is the most powerful personal computer in the world! OS 9 is, of course, an OS designed for the internet. AOL has some good offers at the moment that can get you online and enjoying OS 9 to the full. Some of the new features in OS 9 are impressive! Sherlock 2 will make it so easy to find stuff on the internet and will make shopping easier. Voiceprint Password and built in Encryption will make your Mac's data invulnerable. As expected, OS 9 also features a new, metallic looking UI. I've ordered my disk and hopefully it will be here soon - I'll post screenshots as soon as I have updated October 1999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priority One Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Shame, from what I've gathered, my PowerBook 15" 10.4 1.5GHz can't hack it. I've been trying to get OS 9 to work under Classic for a while now, but my machine just refuses to boot from the CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
