The Killer (Bcgrabner) Mac OS

Probably the most useful tool to check and kill processes is called Terminal, which is an application that provides access to the lower levels of the Mac OS X operating system and files. Compatible with Mac OS 10.14 or earlier, but not 10.15 which no longer supports 32-bit applications. HAS AN OPTION TO PLAY IN STEREO 3D WITH 3D GLASSES!!! The year is 1957 and a fleet of flying saucers from Planet X have come to Earth. Why buy a Mac mini when you can build a much better PC that's dead silent for half the price?! Let's see if everything is as great as it sounds.PARTS LIST.

And now for something completely different

Professor (Eric Idle): It's an entirely new strain of sheep, a killer sheep that can not only hold a rifle but is also a first-class shot.
Assistant (Carol Cleveland): But where are they coming from, professor?
Professor: That I don't know. I just don't know. I really just don't know. I'm afraid even I really just don't know. I have to tell you I'm afraid even I really just don't know. I'm afraid I have to tell you...
(she hands him a glass of water which she had been busy getting as soon as he started into this speech) ... thank you ... (resuming normal breezy voice)
Professor: ... I don't know. Our only clue is this portion of wolf's clothing which the killer sheep...
Viking (Terry Gilliam): ... was wearing...
Professor: ... in yesterday's raid on Selfridges.

The first two releases of Mac OS X shared the same wallpaper. The sweeping blue arcs and curves helped set the tone of the new Aqua interface.

10.2 Jaguar

Jaguar took the same Aqua-inspired theme but added some depth and motion to things. In my head, the trails streaking across the screen were from a set of comets.

10.5 Leopard

Complete with a revised, unified user interface and shiny new Dock, 10.5 broke the Aqua mold. As such, Leopard was the first version of OS X to break from the Aqua-themed wallpaper. It ushered in the “space era” of OS X wallpapers, which was used heavily in the new Time Machine interface as well.

10.8 Mountain Lion

Just like Snow Leopard before it, with Mountain Lion, Apple opted to clean up and revise the existing theme as opposed to changing directions for what would be a less-impactful release of OS X.
