In both cases, the timing was done with a pared down Mac OS X extension set used for working with Classic within Mac OS X, and your mileage will vary. Wow! On a 500 MHz G4 Titanium PowerBook, the improvement was a bit less dramatic, with startups going from 58 seconds to 45 seconds. On a 400 MHz Pismo (PowerBook), Classic startup times within Mac OS X went from 2 minutes and 10 seconds to 58 seconds. Thanks for the note! We too have noticed that the startup time of Classic is now significantly faster. Classic has finally become a very stable, speedy reliable OS (as if it wasnit already!). All other aspects are just finishing touches on the best OS ever made. That is all at the moment that I have noticed. Redraw has been enhanced a little, and overall smoothness. The OS performance overall was speedier as well. Boot time for me was cut in half yet again.
I ran for 62 days without a reboot using Photoshop, Poser, Bryce 4, Internet and mail apps, AppleWorks, etc. The Classic OS has never been more stable. From our source:Īlso, on 9.2.1, since I have had the inside track for months now, here are a few of the features that are added: Please note that we are publishing this *after* the release of the update, which honors his NDA and Appleis privacy. That comes with cool new shortcuts, and TMO has those new shortcuts for you below.įirst up, however, we have notes from an Observer who was a beta tester of the new OS. Another big new item is the inclusion of a new "Windows" pulldown menu in the Classic Mac menubar. In addition as some enhancements for multiple-users, and the ability to access oneis iDisk from an open & save dialog box. Mac OS 9.2.1 has a significantly faster startup time, and general use appears much faster.
What everyone has been wanting to know, however, is whatis new in the update. Those who have tried it are reporting MUCH faster downloads in our forums.
#INTERNET EXPLORER MAC OS 9 UPDATE#
Observer David Nelson found a direct link for downloading the update that worked much better for many who found downloading the update from the above link difficult. Apple released Mac OS 9.2.1 through the Internet yesterday.
