<font face="Arial" size="2">Apple Macintosh computers were designed
for easy networking in a peer-to-peer, workgroup situation. Network interfaces are included as part of the hardware and networking
components are built into the Macintosh operating system. Ethernet and
Token Ring network adapters are available for the Macintosh.</font><p>
<font face="Arial" size="2">The Macintosh, or Mac, is popular in many
educational institutions and corporate graphics departments. Macs can
be connected to one another in workgroups and can access AppleShare
file servers. Macs can also be connected to PC LANs that include
Microsoft, NetWare, or UNIX servers.

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><b>Mac OS X (10)</b><br>
The Macintosh operating system, Mac OS X, is sometimes referred to as
Apple System 10. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">Some of the features of Mac OS X are in
the GUI called Aqua. The Aqua GUI resembles a cross between Microsoft
Windows XP and Linux X-windows GUI. Mac OS X is designed to provide
features for the home computer, such as Internet browsing, video and
photo editing, and games, while still providing features that offer
powerful and customizable tools that IT professionals need in an
operating system.
<img border="0" src="../../images/2.gif" align="absmiddle" width="12" height="12"></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">The Mac OS X is fully compatible with
older versions of the Mac operating systems. Mac OS X provides a new
feature that allows for AppleTalk and Windows connectivity. The Mac OS
X core operating system is called Darwin. Darwin is a UNIX-based,
powerful system that provides stability and performance. These
enhancements provide Mac OS X with support for protected memory,
preemptive multitasking, advanced memory management, and symmetric
multiprocessing. This makes Mac OS X a formidable competitor amongst
operating systems.</font></p>
