  • Chapter 3: System Software
    75 System 3 Software When you first buy a computer, it’s the hardware that gets all the attention. But what really makes the Mac what it is—an easy-to-use and highly customizable personal computer—is the system software. The system software creates the desktop, lets you organize your files in folders, and gives you capabilities—such as cutting and pasting text and graphics—that work in virtually any Mac program. In this chapter, we describe the basic components of the Mac system soft- ware. You’ll also find advice on system software installation and modification. 76 Chapter 3: System Software Contributors Contents Sharon Zardetto The Operating System.....................................................77 Aker (SZA) is the chapter editor.
