In this second part of our retrospective on the ten year history of Mac OS X, we take a look at Apple’s releases from 2005 to present, beginning with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and ending with OS X 10.7 Lion. Take a look at the first part of our OSX retrospective, which discusses OS X 10.0 Cheetah through OS X 10.3 Panther. In the mid-2000s, Apple was faced with a significant hardware problem; it was becoming evident from the roadmap of the PowerPC processor line that it would not be able to keep pace with Intel’s processors. Additionally, the PowerPC G5’s power and cooling requirements made it inappropriate for use in notebook computers, and Apple’s G4-based notebooks lagged in performance behind their Windows counterparts. A major change was coming. Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Release date: April 29, 2005 The gap between Panther and Tiger was a long one, marking the beginning of a longer development cycle between revisions of OS X. Tiger was also arguably the most important version of OS X since the first, as Apple was secretly developing a separate version of Tiger that would run on Intel processors in preparation for a platform change. Tiger included Spotlight, a utility that allowed users to search for any file from the desktop. In addition to searching for file names, Spotlight had the ability to search for files using their metadata such as text and tags. Results appeared on the screen as soon as the user began to type. Tiger was also the first OS X version to include the Dashboard; pressing the F12 key swept all of the open windows away and displayed an array of mini-applications that Apple called Widgets. Users could find and download new Widgets for a variety of different functions online. Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger was the operating system that many new users to the Mac, as it was the operating system included on the first Mac computers with Intel processors. Tiger was also the operating system included with the Mac Mini, a sub-$500 computer that allowed Windows users to switch to a Mac inexpensively by using their current monitor, keyboard and mouse. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Release date: October 26, 2007 Well over two years elapsed between the releases of Tiger and Leopard. Leopard gave the desktop a new, sleeker appearance with a redesigned Dock and new default wallpaper. Leopard was also the final version of Mac OS X to support the aging line of PowerPC-based Macs. Time Machine was one of Leopard’s most notable new features; by connecting an external hard drive, Mac users could enjoy automatic system backups without needing to worry about scheduling or a complicated restoration process. A user could simply launch Time Machine to see what any file or folder looked like in the past, and instantly restore it to its previous state. Leopard removed support for all Macs with G3 processors, requiring a fast G4 or better to run. Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Release date: August 28, 2009 Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard marked another major increase in system requirements, removing support for PowerPC processors and requiring a machine with at least 1 GB of RAM. Apple also priced Snow Leopard low — just $29 — to speed adoption. Snow Leopard was also a leaner and meaner operating system, consuming 250 MB less hard drive space and including true support for 64-bit processors. Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Release date: Mid-2011 (expected) Mac OS X Lion will include Mission Control, a new way of viewing all open windows grouped according to their host programs. It will also include long-awaited support for the TRIM command, which improves performance on solid-state drives after extended use. Lion will also include native support for the Mac App Store, which will begin the process of unifying Mac OS X and iOS. We expect that this unifying process may eventually mark the end of Mac OS X; it is entirely possible that we will one day be discussing the latest version of iOS as we install it on our Macs.

Ožujka 24, 2001 — prije deset godina i danas — Apple izdao Mac OS X 10.0, također poznat kao “Cheetah.” Iako je u početku tranzicije nije jednostavno za Mac vlasnika, koji su jako ljut zbog pitanja brzinu i stabilnost, Apple ustrajali i napravio jednu poboljšanje drugom operativnom sustavu. Do kraja godine, OS X je zavist Windows korisnike diljem svijeta. Mnogi vlasnici PC su još uvijek u sustavu Windows 98, ne želi postati rane usvojitelje Windows XP nakon Windows Millennium Edition debakl, i posezala za razne skinning programe kako bi njihova računala izgledaju više kao Macove. Danas, Windows je sustigao OS X na neki način, i ne u drugima. Tvrdimo da, dok je Windows 7 je Microsoftov najviše vizualno privlačan operativni sustav još, još uvijek zaostaje za OS X u pogledu računalnog navigaciju i ukupnu jednostavnost korištenja. Microsoft pati od korisničke baze koja se ne želi odreći podršku za ostavština hardvera i softvera, Iako Apple — na rubu stečaja u kasnim 1990-ih — znao da je to bilo mogao prisiliti svoju malu bazu korisnika kroz težak prijelaz ili izgubiti sve. Apple je doista puni krug, uz desetu obljetnicu Mac OS X obilježenom izvješća koja, između ipad i Mac platformama, Apple je spremna postati dominantna računalna tvrtka u 2011. Ovaj uspjeh jamči pogled unatrag, pa molimo da nam se pridružite na ovom retrospektivu kao što smo pogledati prvih deset godina Mac OS X. Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah Datum objave: Ožujak 24, 2001 Neki od kredita za postojanje Mac OS X odlazi Steve Jobs, kao što je njegova tvrtka NeXT koji je stvorio NeXTSTEP operacijski sustav, koja daje okvir da Apple potrebne za operativni sustav zamijeniti starenja Mac OS Classic platforme. Međutim, velik dio kredita bi trebao ići na bivšeg Apple CEO Gil Amelio i, jer je Amelio koji su prepoznali potrebu za modernizacijom i orkestrirao kupnju Sljedeća, dovođenje novih radnih mjesta za Apple, i njegova tvrtka Tehnika s njim. Imamo i Jean-Louis Gassée zahvaliti; Amelio izvorno htjeli kupiti sada-mrtav BeOS, ali Gassée želio više nego Apple je spreman platiti — $275 Milijun. Dobro za Apple, loše Be; tvorac BeOS prestao s radom u 2011 a prodan je za samo dlan $11 Milijun. Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah imala strmim zahtjeve hardvera, trebaju Mac s najmanje G3 procesor i 128 MB RAM-a. To je značilo da su mnogi Mac vlasnici nisu bili u mogućnosti koristiti ga. Oni koji bi mogao pokrenuti Cheetah pronašao da bude spor i nestabilan. Out of the box, Cheetah nije mogao igrati DVD ili spali CD-a. Ipak, Njegova korisničko sučelje je revolucionarna za to vrijeme; što se tada važeće operativne sustave kao što su Windows 98 a 2000 tražiti godina od datuma. Microsoft je objavio mnogo više moderan sustav Windows XP u listopadu, ali nedostajalo eleganciju OS X. Mac OS X 10.1 Puma Datum objave: Rujan 25, 2001 Apple izdao Mac OS X 10.1 Puma puke mjeseci nakon Cheetah, rješavanje mnogih problema s izvornom izdanju i dao vlasnicima Cheetah besplatno. Puma uključena podrška za više pisače, CD i DVD spaljivanje i poboljšane 3D grafičke performanse. Zanimljivo je primijetiti da, Iako je Apple uključeni Mac OS 10.1 Puma s novim Mac računala, Mac zapravo bi i dalje čizma u Mac OS 9 po defaultu; Puma i dalje pati od problema s performansama, i Mac korisnici još uvijek nisu uspjeli pronaći prikladne OS X-om zamjenu za sve njihovo softvera. Apple je kasnije napravio OS X zadana dizanje operativnog sustava s izdavanjem OS X 10.1.2. Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar Datum objave: Kolovoz 23, 2002 Mnogi od poboljšanja u Jaguaru održan iza kulisa, s Apple povećanje interoperabilnosti između Mac računala i Windows mrežama, i dodavanje novih usluga mreže Bonjour. S Hello, to je lakše pronaći i koristiti zajedničke mrežne resurse poput pisača. Korisnici Jaguar pronašao operativni sustav da se brže i više reagiraju na trenutnu hardvera, i poštovati novu značajku za pretraživanje kako Apple provoditi u Finder. Kao znak dobre volje prema tržištu obrazovanja — gdje je Apple uvijek održava snažnu prisutnost — Apple je ponudio besplatne primjerke Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar nastavnicima koji su ih zatražili. Mac OS X 10.3 Panter Datum objave: Listopad 24, 2003 OS X 10.3 Panther pojačao zahtjeve sustava nešto od prethodne verzije operativnog sustava, uklanjanje podrške za starije G3 strojeve, uključujući bež Power Macintosh i “Vol Strit” PowerBook. Panther uključen obnovljenu iChat aplikacije, koja je sada uključena u realnom vremenu video razgovore na računalima s FireWire kamere i širokopojasne internetske veze. Panther je također dodao novi brušenog aluminija izgleda za otvorene prozore. Možda najveća promjena, međutim, je odsutnost Internet Explorer, koji je bio zadani web-preglednik uključen u prethodnim verzijama Mac OS X. Panther označena izgled Safari kao preglednik paketu s OS X. Apple je pristao na skupinu Internet Explorer s Mac računala za pet godina, kada Microsoft uložio u tvrtku kako bi ga zadržati na površini u 1997. Nastavak na sljedećoj stranici. Stranice: 1 2
