“Apple Computer Inc. is expected on Tuesday to introduce a
version of its Macintosh operating system for computer servers and
possibly details on the next version of the operating system for
its popular personal computers.
“The major upgrade of the software, its biggest overhaul in many
years, will combine features from the current Mac OS and Next
Computer Inc’s Rhapsody operating system.”
“Apple faces some tough competition in the server area, with the
Linux free operating system gaining more support from major
computer makers and increasingly widespread use among Internet
service providers and Web site applications.”
