It was more distinctive to sell вЂњMac OS 7.6вЂќ than вЂњSystem Software 7.6.вЂќ The 1998 iMac made the вЂњMacвЂќ abbreviation official for Apple hardware.

Since the MacвЂ™s operating system was only designed for one computer-the Macintosh-Apple initially called very early versions of Mac OS under generic names like вЂњSystem 1,вЂќ later formalized to вЂњMacintosh System SoftwareвЂќ or just вЂњSystem Software.вЂќ In 1997, Apple changed the OSвЂ™s name to вЂњMac OSвЂќ with the release of Mac OS 7.6, in an attempt to make it easier to license the OS to Mac hardware clone makers at the time. ItвЂ™s much easier to say, and the nickname stuck: Upon the launch of the original Macintosh in 1984, Apple released applications called MacPaint and MacWrite, for example, that quickly became must-haves for the new platform. Since the beginning of the Apple Macintosh brand in 1984, Apple employees, press, and customers alike have been abbreviating the name to вЂњMacвЂќ for convenience. After some negotiations, Apple licensed the rights to the name from McIntosh Laboratory in 1983, then bought the trademark outright in 1986. To clear up legal issues, Steve Jobs wrote McIntosh Laboratory a letter in 1982 asking to use the name.

For a short time afterward, Jobs wanted to call the upcoming computer вЂњBicycle,вЂќ after a reference to one of his favorite sayings, вЂњA computer is a bicycle for the mind.вЂќ AppleД«ut Macintosh developers, still attached to the Macintosh code name, never liked вЂњBicycle,вЂќ and вЂњMacintoshвЂќ won out. Steve Jobs took over the Macintosh project in January 1981. (In Gaelic, the ancestral McIntosh surname means вЂњson of the chief.вЂќ)Д®arly on, Jef Raskin had decided to add an вЂњaвЂќ to the вЂњMacвЂќ in вЂњMacintoshвЂќ to try to avoid potential trademark conflicts with a high-end hi-fi audio company called McIntosh Laboratory, based in New York. In turn, the McIntosh apple got its name from a Canadian farmer named John McIntosh who discovered an apple seedling on his farm in 1811, cultivated it, and liked the way its fruit tasted. The McIntosh Red, a tart apple with a red and green skin, is the national Apple of Canada, and was popular in New England while Raskin was growing up in New York. And I figured that if I was going to have an apple I might as well have a tasty one.вЂќ Brent Hofacker/ In a 2003 interview with ACMвЂ™s Ubiquity journal, Raskin described the origins of what he named the project: вЂњI called it вЂMacintoshвЂ™ because the McIntosh is my favorite kind of apple to eat. In 1979, an Apple employee named Jef Raskin began working on an experimental appliance-like computer project within Apple. He also wanted Apple to alphabetically appear before Atari in the phone book. Jobs decided on the Apple name after visiting an apple farm while on a fruitarian diet.
