==== MacIvory ==== The MacIvory was the first in a series of experimental [[Lisp Machine]] platforms that were developed at Apple by the ATG (Advanced Technology Group) group after the aquisition of Symbolics in 1993. The ATG was merged into the System Group in 1995 after their successful port of [[Plan 9]] to the PPC which was rewritten almost entirely in the [[Dylan]] [[Programming Language]], cementing Apple's reputation for innovation in the [[Operating System]] sphere. [[Plan 9]] was the natural successor to [[MacOS8]] and formed a solid foundation for [[OsX]] (as well as being in keeping with Apple's preference for user friendly numerical progression). ==== Alternative perspectives ==== * [[Disinformation]] * [[MacIvory Notes]]
