I hope you have your bits-and-bytes diggin' gloves on, because it's time for operating system archaeology!

After playing around with Apple Rhapsody on my Toshiba Libretto, I started to really curious about the origins of Mac OS X and modern macOS. Is there anything in modern macOS left behind from the old days of Steve Jobs' NeXTSTEP?

Lets install NeXTSTEP on an old Compaq Presario and Apple Rhapsody on a PowerBook G3 Wallstreet, compare them to Mac OS X and macOS Big Sur, and find out!

Thanks Ken from @ComputerClan for those glorious shots of your NeXT Cube, and Hypertalking (  / hypertalking  ) for all the cool pictures of your NeXT software and hardware collection!
