Happy 25th, Mac

Somehow, "25 years of the Mac" isn't anywhere near as surprising as "over eight years of Mac OS X."
I say eight years because, like many people, I was using DP4 as my main OS. I think I kept Classic around for awhile, but resisted the urge to use it for anything but the occasional Photoshop task. I got in on as many betas for Mac OS X software - like BBEdit - or used apps like OmniWeb in place of what had, to that point, been my normal app.
Eight years out of 25. Think of that… fully 1/3 of the Mac's lifetime has been spent with Mac OS X as the operating system.
