       @claudiom Yes, System 6 and System 7.Before that, it was just "Finder version X and System file version Y," and there was no unified numbering. I do miss the classic mac. I also miss laptops having real keyboards, which makes it SO jarring when I go between my 2008 Thinkpad to my 2014 Macbook. It feels like typing on a friggin' pizza box.#Cranky #needCaffieneP.S., I remember feeling disappointed that there was no 10th anniversary super PowerMac in 1994 (when the PowerPC macs were just starting to trickle in). Then, I felt confused when the 20th anniverary Mac was released in 1997, instead of 2004 (Apple's anniversary, rather than the Mac's).Now, I think that Apple has largely forgot what Macintosh MEANT, and is all ot happy to sell shiny sheets of aluminum for 30% over top dollar to happy yuppie boys and girls.It's a desecration of the spirit of what the name Macintosh meant, and they need to freaking just call it iPad Clamshell and iPad slate, and get over with it.#StillCranky #StillNeedCaffiene
