Mac Apple, Apple's series of personal consumer computers, which began in 1984 in the United States, is a high-performance portable personal consumer notebook that uses a standalone Mac OS system
Mac is Apple's personal consumer computer that started with "Macintosh" in 1984, such as: iMac, Mac mini, Macbook Air, Macbook Pro, Mac Pro and other computers. Using a stand-alone Mac OS system, the latest OSX series is developed based on the NeXT system and is not compatible. It is a complete and independent ecosystem.
operating system
The Mac system is a Mac-specific system, and it is an operating system that cannot be installed on a normal PC under normal circumstances. Apple not only produces most of the hardware of the Mac, but also develops the operating system used by the Mac, so let's take a look at its operating system.
The operating system of the Mac has reached OS 10.10, codenamed Yosemite, which is the biggest change since the birth of the Mac computer. OS X 10.10 is getting closer and flatter, the new system is very reliable, and many of its features and services reflect Apple's philosophy.
The OS X operating system interface is very unique, highlighting the visual icons and human-machine dialogue (the graphical human-machine dialogue interface originally came from Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center, Apple borrowed its results to develop its own graphical interface, and later was borrowed by Microsoft's Windows and widely used in Windows). Apple's ability to produce computers according to its own technical standards and develop the corresponding operating system independently shows that its technology and strength are extraordinary. For example, Apple is like a consortium of Dell and Microsoft, with "both talent and beauty" in terms of software and hardware.
