If a Mac OS isn't in here, it likely didn't exist.


As you can see, Apple wasn't happy with the Windows interface due to the similar looks around this time

System 2 and 3 were made in the years 1985 and 1986, and were made from the same model as System 1. It did, however, introduce some Minor and insignificant Very significant changes, such as, the printer. However, this would be too confusing for people who looked at a picture of System 1 only.

Changes in these two operating systems mostly focused on Networking parts to improve Networking for the Macintosh. Later changes would focus on Multimedia and the capabilities. This was also around the time when Steve Jobs left the company due to creative differences which started a trend of unsuccessful decisions. When System 2 was also released, Microsoft pulled out their Windows OS, only to find themselves in court due to a similar looking interface to Apple. This would also start Apple's infamy and Microsoft's fame.

Unfortunately, Apple's one didn't look nearly as good.

Apple vs. Microsoft begins[edit]

Features[edit]

AppleTalk[edit]

No, not that type of chat!

AppleTalk is a networking system for business users. Development of this began during the Laserwriter development. It was eventually bundled with System 2 and was a huge success.

Hierarchical File System[edit]

No, it's not like this networking.

Hierarchical File System (or HFS) was a file system used for the Macintosh Operating System. It was first bundled with System 2 in 1985 to replace the old and clunky Finder File System. The rest of the explanation is extremely complicated for Uncyclopedia, so I recommend you do your research.

SCSI[edit]

SCSI is something too complicated to explain, but I'll try to overoveroveroveroversimplify it. SCSI is a file system used for transferring data from one computer to another. It seemed really popular in the 80s.

AppleShare[edit]

AppleShare is kind of like SCSI, but a lot less complicated.
