Mac OS X Tiger
UNIX-Based Foundation
Mac OS X is the first operating system to combine the tools, libraries, and commands
expected in a world-class UNIX operating system with common productivity applica-
tions like Microsoft Office, the latest Java software, and an elegant user interface that
makes UNIX configuration simple. Mac OS X is also the first UNIX-based operating
system designed for mobility, with plug-and-play device connectivity, instant sleep
and wake, automatic networking, and full power management features.
Today there are over 14 million Mac OS X users, including scientists, animators, devel-
opers, and system administrators, making Mac OS X the most widely used UNIX-based
desktop operating system. Mac OS X combines an open source foundation and broad
use of standards with the richness and usability of the Mac interface. Now Tiger delivers
a wealth of updates that make it a must-have upgrade for UNIX users.
