	System 7 (Macintosh) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		System 7 was used in the early 1990s up until 1997, succeeding System 6.
		"System Extensions" (small pieces of code that extended the system's functionality) were improved by relocating them to their own subfolder (rather than in the System Folder itself as on earlier versions), and by allowing the user to hold down the shift key during bootup to disable them.
		System 7 was the first version of the Mac OS that required a hard drive for installation as a full installation was too large to fit on the capacity of a 1.44 MB floppy disk.

	System 7 - WikiMac
		System 7 (whose codename being "Big Bang", reflects on the considerable changes that came with the OS) is the term used to refer to the Mac OS that superseded the earlier versions known simply as "The System", or "System 6", and before the use of the term "Mac OS" came into official use.
		System 7.0 was released for the Apple Macintosh on May 13, 1991.
		System 7 started to pave the way to move to a full 32-bit address space, from the previous 24-bit address space, which limited memory to a maximum of 8MB.

	Macintosh System 7.5 reviewed
		Unlike System 7 Pro, which was an expensive point release aimed at people who needed the kitchen sink on their desktop -- with networking, scripting, foreign language support, and electronic mail thrown in -- System 7.5 is aimed squarely at the Mac User on the Clapham Omnibus.
		System 7.5 is a critical part of Apple's journey towards their goal of becoming The Other Microsoft.
		Hidden in its guts is a sophisticated pre-emptive multi-threading system; although it still uses cooperative multitasking at the application level, System 7.5 provides the infrastructure for a rumoured micro-kernel based operating system that Apple are said to be working on.

	Technical Note TN1069: System 7.5.5
		System 7.5.5 includes changes to the Virtual Memory Manager, some substantial Code Fragment Manager improvements, and a variety of enhancements and improvements.
		On a Macintosh 6100, 7100, or 8100 machine, when a floppy disk was inserted and there was asynchronous file system activity going on, the machine could hang.
		Fixes a potential data corruption problem when the Macintosh 5400/120 is configured as follows: as a server with multiple clients connected, and simultaneously as an Apple Remote Access server with at least one Apple Remote Access client connected and that client is logged onto a server via Apple Remote Access.

	Apple pre-announces System 7.0
		As System 7.0 is still in development, it is impossible to determine which applications will be 100 percent compatible.
		Apple is designing System 7.0 to provide for upwardly compatible applications which is a fundamental part of the Macintosh System Software strategy.
		Apple's goal in talking about System 7.0 is to shorten the amount of time necessary to bring a new generation of powerful application software to Macintosh users.

	Macintosh system software frequently asked questions (FAQ)
		When About this Macintosh (About the Finder in System 6) is selected from the Apple menu, the system reports all the memory it can't use as part of the system memory allocation.
		There's also a bug in the System 6 cache code that may cause a peformance hit on disk access if the cache is larger than 128K so this trick is more likely to help Macs running System 7, but again experiment to see what works for you.
		The tuneup includes a number of fixes and enhancements to System 7, including substantially faster printer drivers, a StyleWriter driver that supports background printing, a fix that saves several hundred kilobytes of memory on non-networked Macs, and, most importantly, a vaccine for the disappearing folders bug.

	Security Issues with Macintosh System 7
		System 7 allows an individual Macintosh to provide network access to the local file system ("File Sharing").
		The final step to file sharing using System 7 is to select a volume to share, then select "Sharing..." from the File menu, and check the box entitled "Share this item and it's contents".
		Miscellaneous Since the Macintosh does not have any advanced control of password creation, any password (including no password) would be accepted as adequate; thus users should be aware of proper password creation techniques.

	Macintosh System 7 on the PSP - Engadget
		This one's for the masochists in the house — hacker Neisha Stadelhofer documents how to boot up the venerable old (well, maybe not so venerable but certainly old) Macintosh System 7 on the PSP via the Bochs emulator, running vMac in FreeDOS ("yes, an x86 emulator running a 680x0 emulator on a handheld gaming console").
		She reports boot time is on the order of four hours so, you know, bring a magazine (rack) or something with you if you plan to recreate this proof-of-concept hack.
		Remember system 7 is when Apple switched from Mot 68xxx's to PPC cpus so a delineation is needed.

		This next generation of personal computing, based on RISC processors and component software, means that Macintosh computers bring you more advanced features than PCs running Windows 95, and that those features are easier to use on Macintosh systems.
		The Macintosh is the computer of choice in academic settings because schools simply don’t have the budgets to replace their entire hardware every year or two (there are still more Apple IIs in use in schools than any other computer, with the Macintosh being second).

	Saga of System 7.5.3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In 1996 Apple introduced a major update to the MacOS operating system, and called the System both "System 7.5 Update 2.0" (meaning the second update to MacOS 7.5) and "System 7.5.3" (since MacOS 7.5, once updated, became System 7.5.3).
		Finally, hundreds of thousands of other users (perhaps millions) failed to note that this was an update of System 7.5 (and 7.5.1 and 7.5.2), not the earlier System 7 or System 7.1.
		If you are running System 7.5 and wish to upgrade to 7.5.3, your ultimate goal should be System 7.5.3, Revision 2.
