Interesting note about the 10.3 video, Royksopp’s song “Eple” was used. Eple, translated from Norwegian into english means apple. Nothing earth-shattering, but I smiled when I found that out.

Only the Leopard figugured that 1/6 of the Earth speaks Russian. How kind.

Hehe, funny, I did a very similar post to this two days ago.

Mine actually has the 10.0 – 10.2 video, though!

The “Panther they should have used” showed up in the developer versions of it, but was pulled just before release. A damn shame, as it was much better than what shipped.

However, the video for Panther above doesn’t match the one I have – it’s the same music and general style, but the various “welcome” translations flash in and out with a lot more pizzaz than a simple flyby.

And all of these YouTube and similar versions of the Leopard video don’t do it justice at all. Here’s a super high-quality version, that sadly has no audio track:

Shoulda just used Also Sprach Zarathustra (theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey), but maybe that’s too cliché — or dated — by now.

The 10.3 intro video music was a spliced version of Royksopp’s Eple.

Where’d that “Panther video they should have used” video come from, and what’s the music that’s playing? Is it also by Royksopp?

You’re missing OS X 10.2, 10.1 and 10.0

I think I have the System 7 Performa intro somewhere on my cluttered HD. It’s of a cartoon guy walking around and making music on his computer, the musical notes fill the whole house, and makes the outside light up with fireworks. Sorta cheesy, if you think about it…

The video is not available anymore, can someone repost a different location, I’m sure it’s cached somewhere on the interwebs…
