Mac OS X a.k.a 10.3, is the much hyped, long-awaited update to the Macintosh OS X (pronounced “ten” not “ex”) based on the Free-BSD Unix derivative. In a word, that means it’s a lot more versatile and stable than previous Mac OS’es (and we won’t even get into Windows, even if I am a user) and, of course, much prettier, ’cause it’s a Mac…
So, you've decided to download an older version of Mac OS X. There are many reasons that could. Panther 10.3, Tiger 10.4, Leopard 10.5.
