It can run up to OS 9, not just OS 9. It'll run any classic Mac OS that supports PPC, so I think that takes you back to the 7.5 line.

  Please don't call it "OS 9" on the Internet. Googling for OS-9 resources is difficult enough as it is. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-9#Name_conflicts_and_court_decisions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-9#Name_conflicts_and_court_...>

    If I search for “OS 9” without any quotes or anything I get the Wikipedia article for Mac OS 9. I think it’s fine. There’s enough niners out there keeping things alive.

      I think that was what the poster was implying was the problem. MacOS 9 and OS-9 are not the same thing. OS-9 is a Real Time OS originally for 6800/68000 processors.

        It's not really an issue. Searching for os 9 gives one OS's results. Searching for mac os 9 gives the other OS's results. Super easy.

          The issue is that searching for "os 9" also gives results for Mac OS 9, making searching for OS-9 results harder.

            Thanks for the explanation. In that case, the following search works: -mac os 9

    The proper name is Mac OS 9, you are never going to convince people to call it by something else just to make a far more obscure operating system easier to find on Google.

  7.1.2 was the first version that ran on PPC
