Remember what they took from you.

You can have your windows in white or black, with a single accent color.
That's somehow worse than the Mac had when Windows 3.x and 95 let you change almost every individual part!

Seriously Windows! You go from "everything down to the edges of the buttons (but not the little graphical ones because the video driver handles those) to "still almost everything but the button color now affects a bunch of things" (and the edges are now determined from the face) to "if you want the fancy shit you get what you're offered but otherwise the old system is still there" to... black or white windows and a single custom accent.
What the fuck.

I was lucky enough to get the chance to work on an interstitial for a local film festival for one of my college classes, and after a bunch of excessive work, here it is!
(Music: Global Lunch by James Ferraro)
It’s definitely weirder than my usual stuff, but I still hope you enjoy-

MacAddict August 1997
The assorted visual changes (and at least some actual tweaks to the underlying system software ever threatening to creak underneath) of Apple’s upcoming operating system got a big feature in this issue. Cheryl England’s editorial guiltily admitted she was now using Microsoft Internet Explorer with Netscape Navigator demanding ever more memory and providing ever less stability. One small sidebar preview in the game section had MacAddict’s online editor Mark Simmons provide the URL of his Gundam Project site in a notice about a “Gundam 0079″ game from Bandai Digital Entertainment.

Before the web there was Hypercard
It begins with a title card. Dark grey colour over a white background. The title card could have been anything. A game, a story, a contact list, a journal of someones travels, history, geography, and so on. A card had (has) images, text and clickable areas or text which will navigate to another card. This sums up the functionality of Hypercard.
Tumblr media
So many creative things were born out of that Application. Hypercard was just that, a collection of interactive hypercards. It was a Mac only application. It lived from 1987 up until... well, until Mac Os 9 was phased out, honestly. It had a programming language called Hyptertalk. The content you could add here was mainly images and Hypertext, which could be tagged for styling and to create hyperlinks that linked cards together.

I just saw a post dated yesterday about someone using a 'practically fresh install' of Windows 7 and I. Think I need to go lie down

Macworld September 1997
Macworld provided its own positive take on what we’d got with the name “Mac OS 8″ on it, but as the sticker on this issue’s cover suggested things still weren’t all well with the company. Gil Amelio’s resignation a week before the expectation of another poor fiscal quarter also meant the resignation of Ellen Hancock, Apple’s executive vice president of technology, with Avie Tevanian and Jon Rubenstein splitting up her responsibilities. It was mentioned that “Steve Jobs also assumes an expanded role as adviser to the board on product strategy, marketing and sales, and business partnerships,” although he wouldn’t be involved with the contentious renegotiations with Mac OS licensees. A different article did evaluate four different “digital organizers” from the Newton MessagePad 2000 to the PalmPilot, with the Sharp Zaurus and Psion 3c also looked at.

Safari for mac os x 10.5 8

#Safari for mac os x 10.5 8 mac os x
Internet access is available via Safari 3.0.4 though most pages refuse to load because of what looks like outdated HTTPS support in this years-old version of Safari.

Now, remove the line in the QEMU batch file that attaches the installer image, and change the line with "-boot d" to "-boot c" and the virtual machine will now boot into the freshly installed Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (at least for me). Just manually turn off the virtual machine. This will reboot the QEMU virtual machine back into the installer. DO NOT click the "Restart" button! Instead open the "Choose Startup Disk" utility from the "Utilities" menu, click to select the volume to which you installed Mac OS X 10.5 (called "Macintosh HD" by default), then click "Restart.". When the Mac OS X 10.5 installer is about to finish, it gave me an "Install Failed" screen that claims 'The installer could not make the computer start up from the volume "Macintosh HD".' At this point, the installer offers to restart the computer for you to retry the installation. _Inc._2007įor some reason, the two 10.5 disc images from Macintosh Garden don't boot for me.Ģ. In the end, the only image that worked for me was this one from the Internet Archive. It was hard to get a disc image of the Mac OS X 10.5 install media that successfully boots into the installer in QEMU. netdev user,id=network01 -device sungem,netdev=network01 ^ĭuring the process, I learned two non-obvious things that may be useful for others intending to do the same.ġ. prom-env "auto-boot?=true" -prom-env "boot-args=-v" -prom-env "vga-ndrv?=true" ^ Code: Select all qemu-system-ppc-screamer-50.exe ^
