@@MichaelMJD I know it's been a while since you've made development videos, but if it's possible, could you make a few more on Windows 1.0, 3.0 to 3.1, NT 3.1 to 4.0, 2000 and 11? (srry I just love these types of videos)
I still find the aqua interface absolutely beautiful. I love the colors and shiny fruit gusher looking buttons. They’re like liquid filled marbles or something.
I loved the look of these iBooks. No other laptop looked similar before or since (except maybe rip-offs at the time). Sure, they looked sort of like toys, but what a great thing as an adult to walk around with a toy that was useful. The only time I ever saw these in person was in a computer lab at the company where I worked. I did not work on that company's project which was using iBooks, so I did not touch them so as not to disrupt their automated testing on them.
I wish Apple had kept this design language around a little while longer before moving to the completely sterile look they ended up transitioning into. I do still enjoy the white iBooks and MacBooks and even some of the early metal chassis designs but once they transitioned their lineup to "everything aluminum all of the time" it just didn't feel special anymore. It's a shame they took the criticisms of the look so hard. I first met these iBooks in my elementary school's computer lab and immediately fell in love. Spent all my life wanting one of my own. Now I have several, my favorite being my Indigo one that I've maxed the RAM on, upgraded to an SSD and swapped the CD drive out for a much faster DVD drive than would have come even in the models that came with DVD drives... Sadly no drive cover since the way the CD drive and DVD drive covers connect to the drives themselves are different, but I did hang onto my old CD drive cover. Someday I'll find a solution for that. :P
There's something so special to me about the skeuomorphic era of Mac OS. Even though I've never used it, I get the feeling that it was very unique to use. It looked fantastic, had many modern and useful features and most importantly, it had that old "Appleness" to it that came from Steve Jobs and his team.
Jaguar was the first truly usable release of macOS 10. Cheetah was effectively another beta, Puma was still mainly for early adopters. Jaguar marked the point where the code had matured and there was finally some good software to run. This also marked the point where Apple killed off the classic macOS (v9) for good, so I think they also felt the same about Jaguar.
I had the exact same one in 2nd grade running 9.1. Clamshells and iMac G4s are probably some of my favorite Macs. So glad I grabbed one in every color when they were still affordable. My two key lime models are gonna pay for my retirement if they keep going up at their current rate.
Even though I was born in the 2000s and only have memories of Windows XP onwards, I find it very fun to see this kind of older technology and how it behaves nowadays, and I have even more fun watching everything go wrong hahahahahahahaha. Hello from Brazil
So, this is modern mac OS already, not like 9 and earlier that are "Classic Mac OS", right? Well, that was 23 years ago (almost 22 for this Jaguar version), and we are now nearly twice as old... Life is short to be sure 😰
I swear, I have never in my life I ever seen him install OS that quick, there’s usually something that has to go wrong whenever he’s doing something like this, like something he’s missing or it doesn’t wanna cooperate
I really love the 2000s aesthetic and I love how basically everything you cover is like that in the sense it’s not super old but also not super modern the perfect crossroad.
God, this has just made me realise how old I am, I remember installing 10.2 when it was brand new. Hell I remember excitedly installing the Beta of OSX
I know you may changed it because of viewing behaviors, but I really miss those small time lapses and progress bars going with the cool music on the background...
I don't have a new Mac. I have an old Mac Pro Dual G5 Tower. I like the System Preferences done like this. It would the one thing I would hate with using a newer Mac and MacOS. I just don't get why they had to make the new System Preferences to look like an iOS app. Vent over.
That... 5 device maximum is genuinely hilarious, because for it to be effective, they have to hope someone with enough devices buys this pack, actually reads the terms and conditions in box, and gets scared enough into buying another copy- totally probably all of about 3 people *ever.* Wild.
On Action Retro he said if you get one and do any mod/upgrade (besides ram) you end up buying at least 4 because you are going to do break something the first time you take it apart. I know I sheared the trackpad cable off one . . .
Everything goes wrong? That’s just a normal experience, I’ve definitely spent way too much time on just trying different OS versions on my PowerBook G4. Haven’t used 10.2 yet though, that setup looks awesome!
I remember that drives from that era could just not like burnable cds and mess up trying to read em. Also i bet a g4 upgrade existed at one point. haha
Sometimes I wish those times from earlier OS X Versions and the great Apple design back. Leopard was my favourite. And of course the „Welcome“ video after installation. Really missing that. Made you feel „associated“, if you know what I mean.
i remember installing 10.4 on a friend's clamshell probably like 15 years ago, I put 10.4 on everything I could back then even iMacs. I think I would just boot up with an external firewire drive and just clone drives using carbon copy cloner. Not even bother with installing. The drive. I remember maxing out the ram and I think I upgraded the drive to a 120gb hd. SSD stuff either wasn't around or not cheap back then. Not a fun mac to take apart but I got 10.4 running good. I rarely install mac os's from original discs I have used usb thumb drives in some installs but mostly just stick to cloning drives much easier.
I haven’t watched the entire video yet, but I’m wondering given the mishaps if you’re missing the 4.1.7 firmware upgrade, which was supposedly a prerequisite for Mac OS X IIRC. Btw, these have no clock battery; they relied on a special capacitor plus the system’s main battery, which I’m betting is dead at this point.
There's a couple of G3/G4 iBooks for sale dirt cheap at the completely opposite corner of the county (on Craigslist), but I never have occasion to head over that way anymore. But if I bought one (or two) of them, I'd probably run System 8 on them rather than MacOS 10.x. Mainly because that's the newest version we tested on when I worked at a multimedia software company.
The reason Halo fails to launch at all here is because the original iBook clamshells only had an ATI Rage Mobility. Apple never included a driver, at least in Mac OS X, with OpenGL acceleration for the non 128 series of Rage cards. At minimum you need an iBook clamshell with Firewire as they include a Rage Mobility 128 to at least run Halo, albeit a lot of the geometry and textures fail to render properly.
Slight correction to the video: The PC port of Halo was actually done by Gearbox Software and not Microsoft. Microsoft was actually purely a publisher on Halo, the main game was made by Bungie. I'm not sure who did the Mac port but I suspect Aspyr.
My workplace is moving and throwing out a lot of crap. Also some not crap things. So. I got my first apple product. Mac mini. A delightful little device. Haven't gotten around to installing anything on it yet. OS X seems like a fun thing to play around with. Will see. A whole different ecosystem to fiddle around with. Also. It looks good on my desk. It just looks good. I don't really get that feeling from other Apple products but this thing is just so attractive. Hm. A sticker with Retroarch logo over the Apple one and it'd make for a dang nice emubox. Just. As long as it's some excuse to keep it on my desk.
It's very weird that Apple don't integrate different colors for elements of the early Aqua interface, over classic blue and graphite. In the presentation of Mac Os X Sp3, in 2000, there were some renders of Aqua in different color schemes..
The eject issue is not anything to do with your laptop. I have reinstalled Mac OS X on so many different machines, and these old toilet seat iBooks always do that if you set the Startup Disk from Control Panels (which is all the installer does, just quietly behind the scenes). Holding C on boot also works. Last absolutely "kitchen sink" resort, you can boot to Open Firmware and type "boot cd:,\\:tbxi" and hit Return. It's an issue in software that's actually caused by a combination of some revisions of the older iBook firmware and certain versions of the Mac OS ROM "firmware in a file" in the OS 9 system folder. Basically, the right enabler and the right firmware and boom you have a bug. Source, I am a systems engineer and a vintage computer enthusiast with far too much free time on my hands.
damn, halo combat evolved remembered me on how much fun i had playing it way too late i played it last year on a ps4 controller and it was better than i could think, took me three days but they were fun days
I had no idea Apple expected you to use the upgrade discs on a limited number of machines. How did that even operate, was there some kind of DRM or did it just operate on the "trust me bro" model? I've re-installed using the same discs so many times... I can definitely see people pooling money together and throwing "upgrade parties" with how expensive it was... XD
On my iBook firewire clamshell there is only 1. So the originals had 2.Interesting. Mactracker says 1 for this model. I will have to contact the developer Ian.
Panther was the first really usable version of OSX for me. Sure classic helped a lot with the earlier releases but we're always super slow and bloated in my experience especially 10.0 and 10.1. Jaguar wasn't terrible but I missed a few things that really helped the OSX experience like spotlight. Pretty sure my xserver G4 is running server 10.3.9 haven't powered it up in a while though.
Install media for 10.0-10.2 can be quite finicky. The lowest version of the MacOS X I currently own on retail is 10.3 Panther and it never ejects when I boot into the first disc. After installing Panther then that's when I install macOS 10.4 Tiger which is my favorite version of the macOS X, which is the best version to run on a G3 Macs.
My Clamshell boots via Fire Wire perfectly into 10.4.11 Tiger, which actually is installed on a DualUSB iBook G3 (translucent, white colored from the inside). BUT I do not get it installed on the internal HDD in the Clamshell. Althru the HDD in the Clamshell is not write protected, it seems to be from the outside via Fire Wire. I also installed Tiger using the iBook G3 on an iMac, which itself officially supports 10.3 only (I guess).
Wait. I think Michael is wrong on the latest version of OSX supported on this model. I was told that it can run Tiger, AKA V. 10.4. But, who's wrong, me, or Michael?
Hey Michael! Always enjoy your content man! Love the whole look of this computer, definitely up there w/ the Monorail as one of my faves you've showcased! I do some art and music stuff in my spare time and the sound of the disk drive at 18:09 is really cool. Would you mind if I used that in a project I'm working on?
I would like to ask a question anyone can answer but I would love for Michael to answer it I have a dell precision m4600 and I believe it was upgraded to windows 10. Could I downgrade it to windows xp?
I would assume the MAX on the invoice was some kind of internal joke, whereby they abbreviated MAc os X as MAX. And it's weird that Halo would list 256mb of RAM as a requirement when the XBox only had 64mb. Although, in this instance it probably doesn't matter since the CPU was clocked at less than half the speed of the XBox CPU. That really shouldn't be a huge deal if it's properly utilizing the GPU too, but I've never seen the code for Halo, so I couldn't say for certain.

Something about the “But everything goes wrong” videos just bring the absolute comfy vibe I look for : )
64 MB RAM with 6 GB HD was a minor revision to the first iBook in early 2000. Originals from late 1999 had 32 MB RAM, 3.2 GB HD.
I still find the aqua interface absolutely beautiful. I love the colors and shiny fruit gusher looking buttons. They’re like liquid filled marbles or something.
The “everything goes wrong” series has to be my absolute favorite lmao

It just doesnt feel right if everything goes TOO well. Its like installing old XP discs and its missing a driver you needed real badly to progress
THAT was a walk down memory lane. I used 10.2 Jaguar for a few years on my iMac G3. Great os.

Hey MJD
Do you think you would ever do a video of the Bruce Lee Nokia from 2008?
I believe the G3 lacks some instructions that the later G4 had thats why halo cant load
Good old macOS
nice ibook. looked in my ram draw. stil have two of them 512 modules for the ibook ^^
I wish you got CL/visual studio for 'free' with windows...
10.3 Panther is faster than Jaguar on the same hardware. In fact it was the first edition of OSX that I found usable on my 700mhz G3.
when michael pulled out the copy of halo i immedately thought of the video from mattkc that he tried to run halo on a imac g3
Was it as hard to replace the hard drive as it is on modern Apple devices?
Halo requires a 698 MHz CPU? Well that's oddly specific isn't it.
but its nice.
if ya want a real chance on halo give it a later g3 snow, im thinking the reason it fails is lack of hardware t&l
