Mac Classic

Mac Classic is the home for guides, news and tips for using early Apple computers, and Classic Mac OS systems. Mac OS 9 is still capable of many common tasks and can be an excellent distraction free environment. For some, these machines are the perfect tools to get the job done.

Classic is a loosely used term for Mac OS systems that predate Mac OS X. This website is not focused on the Mac OS Classic Environment (a Mac OS 9 emulator for OSX).

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or comments.
