It is, indeed. Unfortunately, Rhapsody was released at the peak of Windows dominance in 1998, so almost no one wanted to develop software for a platform with such a tiny market share, especially when even writing software for the more popular Mac OS 9 wasn’t very compelling.
I had many Macs in the early 2000s, including the iconic iMac G4 'Lamp,' which looked amazing. But since I was a student and more into gaming at the time, a PC running Windows was the thing for me...
@@O_mores I had it all, 3dfx, zip drives, 386sx33, 486dx2, P133, PII-450, etc etc etc. Only PowerPc Macs interest me. Current Macs for me are closed Linux distro on Gucci hardware. Its like those that drink Starbuck for the prestige.
Thanks for the video! I never used nor saw Rhapsody IRL, but I do remember Yellow Box (API for Rhapsody) on NT 4 very well. Yellow Box was integral part of Heidelberg Signa Station (imposition software) and their Delta Technology RIP & Workflow Software back in late ‘90s / early 2Ks. Only some time later we got our first G4 with Cheetah (OS X 10.0/1.3.1).
I was planning to do a Windows 7 video running on Intel 14th Gen hardware, but playing with Rhapsody was fun enough to forget about Windows for a few days.
Definitely! OS/2 has better hardware support, especially for some PCI sound cards and legacy peripherals, making more rewarding experience in the end... I guess. It also has support for classic DOS and Windows 3.x applications, so I can't pass it...
Looks better than the os they have now😂
I want to see more of Rhapsody that looks cool.

Never had a Mac. I love learning about old macs.

Oh wow, I miss Bootcamp after I saw this video
To be nitpicky, Apple's first go at x86 was the 1992 "Star Trek project".
When will you get AM5 motherboard? Or will you get? I still have no solution for win 9x without PCI to SATA adapter.
‘At least 32mb of RAM’
And in 2024 that wouldn’t even be enough to load a single typical web page.
How far we have fallen.
You are still free to use 1990's software on daily basis.
wow new video this cool and interesting

Try OS/2.
