I have uses the newer OS’s of Mac but never the classic series that were numbered.

For those who have used apple computing back in the day, what was it like using it? Was it a lot more snappier and better user interface intuitiveness?

I say this because it always seemed to me that the macintosh operating systems seemed to be more… “smooth sailing” than Bill’s 50/50 BSOD contraptions (Windows ME anyone?)

Obviously things have changed a lot more with newer macos being more fisher priced down in looks but I’d really like to know what you guys thought about OS 8 or 9!

Thank you!

    Could be.

    I think what I didn’t like was they often simply froze. There was no error message, so you had to just try different things to see if you could get it stable.

      were the windows error messages that useful. I mean im thinking of the blue screen garbage.

        If it implicated a driver or file, at least you had a clue to the cause and could search for it online.
