INTRODUCTION

MAC OS X REPRESENTS A UNION OF many different operating system technologies. At its core you will find Unix, an operating system once reserved for high-end servers and workstations, now found on common desktop systems. With Unix comes a whole history of tools, computer languages, and runtime environments. At a higher level, you will find Cocoa, derived from the application toolkits found on NeXTSTEP and OpenStep a result of Apples merger with NeXT in 1997. In Mac OS X you will also find Carbon, a library made from elements of the original Macintosh operating system. The original Mac OS API remains for older projects, although Apple is de-emphasizing its role in Mac OS X. Other technologies have found their way into Mac OS X through the open source community, and Apple is hard at work developing new technologies unique to Mac OS X.
