Mastering Mac OS X
Mac OS X is Apple's next generation operating system. It combines features of Rhapsody and OS 8, marrying a Unix-based (Mach and BSD Unix 4) kernel with the familiar Mac interface. Mac OS X features pre-emptive multitasking, memory protection, and advanced virtual memory; it is fully optimized for Apple's PowerPC G3 based computers and iMacs, and provides support for existing Macintosh applications, as well as a migration path for developers to leverage their existing source code. Also includes a breakthrough software development platform, code-named Yellow Box, for building new classes of reliable, media-rich, and cross-platform applications that can run on Macintosh, Windows, or Unix systems.
