There isn't a single System 7 through Mac OS 9 screenshot in that article... what a shame! This is an excellent history starting with ClarisWorks: https://web.archive.org/web/20160310121630/http://groups.csa... And some discussion of this source when it was still available live on the web: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32267817 | ||

I still use a real OS 9 machine running Claris Works 4.0.5 for my first draft when I take notes. It's such a second nature to me after decades of use that changing would be sand in the gears, and no other integrates suite comes close even in 2025. | ||

I really tried to use AppleWorks in 2003, but there was too much friction for me. This is probably for the best, since iWork came out the next year. |
