Just transfer yourself into the Matrix world. The matrix stripes, warping desktop, flying objects, matrix tunnel and other visual effects are included.

Once upon a time Apple Computer issued a document called 50 Macintosh Advantages, which became 75 Macintosh Advantages in 1997, a document that purported to list 75 different advantages the Mac OS had over its chief competitor, Microsoft Windows 95.

The Advantages document was created as a promotional item to be handed out to Evangelistas. Origin of the 75 Mac Advantages describes the history of the development of the 75 advantages in more detail.

Despite some flaws, the original document listed substantive differences between Mac OS 8.1 and Windows 95, which were contemporary products. Among other problems, the original document had a disconcerting way of shifting between versions of Windows to put the Mac OS in its best light. Overall, however, it was a very popular document with Mac advocates, and this series was based on an archival copy located at Alex Paterson's website [no longer online] and used as source material.

In this series of articles, I have attempted to update the 75 Macintosh Advantages to reflect the current state of the Mac OS (at 9.1/X) and the Windows operating system (now reflected by its Windows 2000, Me, and upcoming XP offerings). This being Low End Mac, the emphasis is on Windows 98 and OS 9, but information about the other versions is included from time to time.

Flexion in a nutshell. Flexion is a unique and musical instrument powered by constructive synthesis and the community. It's universe of tonal control and the build-in preset marketplace make it a Sound Designer's dream. Now run startmol -osx, and we can set up the network on the Mac OS X side. MOL creates a network tunnel called tun0 at the Linux end, and en3 on the Mac OS X end. Once you have logged into to Mac OS X open up the system preferences. Make sure that en3 is set to configure with DHCP. Let's put these concepts into context by digging further into Mac OS Lion. This Mac roars Most of the reporting about Lion focuses on the App Store's move to the Mac, and for good reason.

Publisher's note: We've spent much of the past week editing, adding images, checking links and adding new ones, and otherwise giving these articles from 2001 a bit more polish. We have not updated them to include versions of Windows or the Mac OS.

Advantages Index

According to my analysis, I estimate that despite the enormous effort that has gone into improving Windows, 56 of the original 75 Macintosh advantages still remain (not counting one advantage awarded two credits); 18 advantages are either neutralized due to improvements in Windows or abandonment from Apple, and one advantage is still being researched. Parkour (itch) (harry97) mac os. The totals may change again if I am persuaded by my well-informed readers that I have some flaw in my reasoning.

Concluding Thoughts

I also know there are additional Mac advantages that have appeared since the original document was written, and some advantages of unique interest to hobbyists and people who preserve computers and use low-end machines. A forthcoming article will discuss these advantages.

When OS X settles into the Mac universe in a more-or-less final version and Windows XP is released, the series should be updated again – that will be next year at the earliest, in my opinion. Other unfinished work in this project includes an extension to the advantages, listing features not covered or not existing in the original document, a list of Windows advantages over the Mac OS (for Apple to use the same way Microsoft has used the original Advantages document to improve Windows); and a revision of the entire list including some unfinished research on certain items and items which changed my mind based on reader feedback.
