It's a tragicomic litany of code names: Pink, Taligent, Copland, Rhapsody. Apple has been trying to produce a successor to the classic Mac OS operating system for almost 15 years. To say that Mac OS X has been eagerly awaited by Mac users is an understatement. It was preceded by many developer releases and one public beta release. Don't let the version number confuse you this is the first official release of Apple's new OS. Mac OS X was released on March 24th, 2001, with a suggested retail price of $129 and a version number of 10.0. I've said it before and I'll say it again: the "X" is pronounced "ten", like the roman number, not "ex" like the letter. Mac OS X is Apple's new operating system.
