Mac OS X Tiger: Classic Chapter

An excerpt from Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickStart Guide.
With Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, Apple has finally phased out Mac OS 9. The Classic Environment, which enabled you to run Mac OS 9.2.2 from within Mac OS X is no longer supported in Leopard.
Don’t whine! Let’s face it — Mac OS X has been out for years now. It’s pretty amazing that it supported Mac OS 9 for so long. At this point, Mac OS X users shouldn’t need support for Mac OS 9 anymore. You should have upgraded all your applications for Mac OS X by now.
That said, we pulled the Classic chapter from my Mac OS X QuickStart Guide for the Leopard revision. Rather than throw it away, we decided to release it here as a freely distributable PDF file. And remember, my Tiger book is still out there for the folks not ready to step up to Leopard.
So here’s Chapter 18: The Classic Environment. Enjoy!

Mac OS X Tiger: Unix Chapter

Mac OS Books
An excerpt from Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickStart Guide.
In an effort to trim some fat from my Mac OS X book for its Leopard revision, we decided to cut the existing Unix chapter from the Tiger book. This freed up 44 pages for new material about Leopard’s new features.
But there’s nothing wrong with this older material. It’s still pretty much valid. So rather than discard it forever, we decided to make it available as a free download in PDF format.
So here’s Chapter 19: Unix Basics for Mac OS X. Enjoy!
