Yes the 1996 Apple was on the edge of bankruptcy, yet Mac OS 8 was definitely much more polished than Tahoe.

- mhurron 8mo agoYa ok, unless you looked at it wrong, then it crashed. OS 8 was a platinum theme over System 7. Which was a slightly better System 6, which wasn't significantly different than System 4. System 7 was good for the time, OS 8 and 9 were not, and Apples inability to improve the OS were really starting to show. Windows 95 was a more stable OS than OS 8. Tahoe is better.
- pjmlp 8mo agoHow many Tahoe related radar issues do you want?
- raw_anon_1111 8mo agoYeah - an OS that crashed every time you launched Netscape and you as an end user had to manually allocate memory to apps? Not to mention that the OS itself was still mostly 68K emulated code even on PPC Macs and holding the mouse down over the menu caused all apps to stop running.
- pjmlp 8mo agoAt least you could read the text and resize windows.
