The 'classic' Mac OS is the original Macintosh operating system that was introduced in 1984 alongside the first Macintosh and remained in primary use on Macs until the introduction of Mac OS X in 2001. Apple released the original Macintosh on January 24, 1984; its early system software was partially based on the Lisa OS and the Xerox PARC Alto computer, which former Apple CEO Steve Jobs. The operating system performs basic operations such as starting programs, reading data from the disks, controlling the display and sound, etc. All apps that run on any computer use operating system in order to interact with the user or various computer components.

TouchArcade wrote 'Anyone who longs for a platformer with a little more to offer than the typical jump-stomp-run experience would do well to have a look at Rake in Grass' iPhone offering.'[11] 148Apps said 'This is a game that you will love if you have any platform gaming experience but also young gamers new to the style. The character is cute and the levels, though simple in their design keep you wondering what’s next. You won’t be able to put this game down.'[12] SlideToPlay said 'Archibald's Adventures is a long and addictive game that's greater than the sum of its parts.'[13] PSPMinis wrote 'If you are looking for a great puzzle game and with over 180 challenging levels across 12 different chapters Archibald’s Adventures is a game that should be in everybody’s game library.'[14] Pocket Gamer said 'Archibald's Adventures is puzzle-cum-platforming at its best, serving up a Titantic-sized quest that's as endearing as it is extensive.'[15] PlayStationLifeStyle wrote 'Overall, Archibald’s Adventures is quite simply brilliant value for money. The seamless mix of platforming and puzzle solving makes for a refreshing take on an aged genre and its plethora of levels certainly helps it stand out among the more basic of minis.'[16]
Destructoid said 'There's nothing terribly complex or fancy about Archibald's Adventures. It's just a purely enjoyable game, and the first we've really enjoyed on the device since we reviewed another platformer, Rolando.'[17] PSN Stores wrote 'With only one way to play, the game relies on the strength of its level design and puzzles. They’re both pretty good, don’t get me wrong, but I have a tough time playing this game for more than 3 consecutive levels. After that, either my eyelids start drooping or I get the itch to dodge some coconuts or play something else.'[18] TechnologyTell said 'If platforming is your genre, then Archibald’s Adventures is one that you do want to go on.'[19] What'sOnIphone said ' This game will make you think so hard that every time that incandescent lamp above your head lights up and you’ve finally found a way to slay the dragon...you just can’t help but pat yourself at the back or high-five with the person sitting next to you in that seminar on goal-keeping you’ve been looking forward to, until you picked up Archibald’s Adventures, that is.'[20] AppVee said 'Archibald's Adventures is one of the most solid platform games we've seen so far for the iPhone and iPod Touch.'[21] AppSafari wrote [22]

68k Macintosh
The Computer for the Rest of Us
Macintosh – 1984
The one that started it all. Case design was identical in the 128k and 512k Mac models, with a 9″ black & white screen, small keyboard, separate numeric keypad, and a 3.5″ 400k floppy drive; the 512k “Fat Mac” added badly needed RAM. System Software ran off one floppy, and a second external drive (if you were lucky) held your program or data files – swapping floppies was a way of life for Mac pioneers. The original Mac System Software did not yet have a Shut Down command, just Eject Disk and the power switch on the back. But Windows and Menus were there, the Mouse got introduced to the masses, and the classic Calculator desk accessory survived virtually unchanged all the way to Mac OS 9! The GUI had arrived.
At the VMM a 512k traces the early evolution of the Mac OS with boot floppies for Systems 1-5. VMM TV:Apple “1984” Commercial

Macintosh Plus – 1986
Apple’s longest selling 68k Macintosh model (1986-1990), the Mac Plus brought SCSI support, a full keyboard, a significantly larger RAM capacity (4MB) and an external hard drive option – yay, the end of floppy swapping! The Plus became a big business seller, and teamed with the original Apple LaserWriter and Adobe PostScript fonts offered a reasonably priced entry into the new world of Desktop Publishing. The Mac’s role in defining this industry had an indelible effect on publishing and the dissemination of information worldwide.
The VMM Mac Plus runs System 6.0.8 and is loaded with copies of Apple’s original MacPaint, MacWrite and MacDraw, plus a few classic Mac games. VMM Blog:Vintage Mac Museum Workhorse – Mac Plus
Macintosh IIci – 1989
The Mac II marked the introduction of color screens and expandable systems – with fans (an objection of His Stevedom during the First Jobs Dynasty). The Mac’s use in business, live performances and the creative arts exploded with the Mac II line. The IIci was the most popular of the series, using a smaller, easy to service 3-slot case sized for cubicle desktops; the IIfx was the 6 slot champ with its “wicked fast” 40MHz 68030. And who can forget the clarity of the Apple 13″ RGB monitor? So what if it weighed 50 pounds and doubled as a space heater, the thing was built like a tank!
The Museum Mac IIci runs System 7.1 and has copies of two seminal early web applications, NCSA Mosaic (the first graphical web browser) and Netscape 1.1N. Let the Browser Wars commence! VMM TV:Dinosaurs
Macintosh SE/30 – 1989
The SE/30 was the compact Mac on steroids. A 68030 processor gave this machine the processing power of a Mac IIx, a PDS expansion slot allowed for ethernet capabilities, and it had a power supply that couldn’t be beat – to this day there are still SE/30s running in dusty closets around the world. This machine powered many home MIDI studios running MOTU Performer and Opcode Vision software, and often found a second life as a back room fileserver (just like your hand-me-down iMac). The VMM SE/30 runs System 7.5.5 and can go wireless using an ethernet-to-WiFi bridge.
There’s nothing like surfing the ‘net in black & white with Netscape 2.0 to impress the friends and neighbors!
Macintosh TV – 1993
A black Mac! The MacTV was a limited edition Performa 520 all-in one, clad in a black case and including a TV tuner card. A Control Panel or supplied infrared remote control switched the whole screen between the Mac’s desktop, the TV tuner or a composite video input – no video-in-a-window on this puppy. Nothing the Performa couldn’t do, but Apple offered very few black machines during this period (or since) in North America (they were more popular in Europe), and it looked very cool! Unfortunately it was ahead of its time, and underwhelming performance plus slow sales led to a short lifespan. It has since become a desirable collector’s model.

Quadra 840 AV – 1993
The Motorola 68040 processor was the powerhouse of the 68k era, and the Quadra series (replacing the Mac II) was named after this fourth-generation chip. The 840AV was the ultimate 68k Macintosh: 40MHz ‘040 processor, fastest NuBus architecture, 16 bit stereo sound with video input/output, the ARTA chip (Apple Real Time Architecture – another fine technology doomed before it’s time), and a sporty minitower case. This machine was faster for many tasks than the first generation PowerPC machines introduced a year later, and Quadras dominated the professional audio and video production industries in the early 1990s. At the Museum a Quadra 840AV is running Mac OS 8.1 and showcasing Apple’s legendary “1984” commercial on its AudioVision monitor. VMM TV:The Quadra Revolution
Macintosh Color Classic – 1993
Putting a color screen into the original compact Mac case always seemed an obvious step, although by the time this model was released the Mac II line had been out for several years and Apple was beginning to ship faster 68040 based systems. The 16MHz 68030 processor provided pokey performance, but the Color Classic was cute, portable and inexpensive. It became relatively popular, particulary in Japan where space was at a premium, and a 33MHz Color Classic II with stereo sound was released only for that market.
A working Color Classic is a new edition to the VMM, and sits proudly on top of my office bookshelf running the After Dark “Fish” screensaver. Which is much easier than setting up my actual Macquarium…
