[monkeybutt782]

"Let me give you another cool thing about WIndows too" (9:15)

LOL! that sounds weird.

When did the dock change into the transparent background instead of just the square-shaped icons?

[drygnfyre]

@Technoguy3 At some point during the DPR releases. The earliest OS X builds with Aqua (I think DPR 3 is when it showed up), it was just a bunch of blocky icons. I want to say that just before the Public Beta, when resizing was changed to bicubic algorithms or something like that, it gained a much more attractive look.

lol I got $30, wheres my copy! No really I bet this would be fun to have... Though I bet you would have to keep your clock set back, and over all nearly useless..

[planeman009]

os x just becomes better and better

[planeman009]

are u retarded indeed u r!

[LeoNatan25]

Nope, it seems you are.

[planeman009]

well people god excited about os 10 so u should shut up!

[LeoNatan25]

Well, if they get excited by nothing, then they are retarded, like I said.

[planeman009]

well it was a big invovation back then!

[LeoNatan25]

For Mac, maybe, but Windows had it since 96 (with NT4).

But that doesn't matter, the original post's intention was to mock stupid people getting excited by nothing.

[Benz0Rollin]

steve jobs you can make anything sound amazing

[Mycatisbigfoot]

oui oui oui oui oui oui!!!!! French!!!

[CiniCraft]

mac os x was so stable back then. it NEVER crashed. i think intel kinda ruined it.

[TAGundam]

Intel Processors has nothing to do with the OS stability. Besides, OSX was always designed to run on an intel architecture as a "secret hidden life" as Jobs put it. And actually no, OS 10.0-10.2 was not very stable. Stability is in the coding of the OS, not the transistors and pipelines.

[superviewer]

Ah - this was before France and Germany surrendered to the Euro.

Anyway, I remember getting a new job in 2000 and the OS X preview was already on one of the partitions of the Mac I took over - a G4 400 Mhz btw. I was totally drooling over the shadows and transparencies but it had almost no practical use at this state :-)

[mastgrr]

Surrendered? They gained on it. All other European currencies are in the toilet.

[MacintoshDan]

WOW! Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this?

[metasuperhyper]

go to Google Video and search for Apple Expo 2000. One of the results is downloadable and it contains, among other things, the Public Beta introduction.

[appleeimac]

@metasuperhyper where can i get a copy of os x 10.0? NO piarcy please



[drygnfyre]

@MacintoshDan Are you asking where to get a copy of Mac OS X Public Beta? Because I have no idea... And even if you could find a copy, it was time bombed to expire way back in March 2001 or something like that.

[drygnfyre]

@MacintoshDan You can probably find it but it was time bombed to expire in early 2001...

[1234567abc3]

@MacintoshDan Dude Snow Leopard is here and Lion is COMING SOON

[reallyred123]

Yay MAC!

[PowerPcTricks]

[metasuperhyper]
