Mac OS X was released on this day 24 years ago. On this anniversary, here it is on the web: infinitemac.org/2001/Mac%20OS% (technically 10.1, but that’s the first release that actually worked acceptably)

Infinite Mac has a more complete collection at infinitemac.org/?filter=macosx, and blog.persistent.info/2025/03/i is a blog post with technical details (two separate emulators are involved).

Enjoy!

And I know is more about classic Macs, but you can run older software here too.

Create a custom instance with both 10.1 and 9.2.2 mounted, and then Classic can be started from System Preferences: infinitemac.org/run?disk=Mac+O

@mihaip Thank you for these! I don't see my existing PowerBook G4 Ti's making it into the next decade, so its nice to have a way to still play with these earlier versions of OS X.
