| - Mac OS X DP's interface did not resemble much of the Aqua interface as we'd see today. Instead, the Platinum interface from Mac OS 8 (and earlier on, from Copland) would be used. The system font remained primarily Charcoal. However, although the interface appeared like that of Mac OS 8, the system layout and some names of system applications started bearing a Mac OS X flavor. For example, column view debuted (albeit designed in a very different manner), and the Mac OS X folder layout started bearing fruit. Already before their first public debut with Mac OS 9.1, the Window menu appeared.

| - Mac OS X DP's interface did not resemble much of the Aqua interface as we'd see today. Instead, the Platinum interface from Mac OS 8 (and earlier on, from Copland) would be used. The system font remained primarily Charcoal. However, although the interface appeared like that of Mac OS 8, the system layout and some names of system applications started bearing a Mac OS X flavor. For example, column view debuted (albeit designed in a very different manner), and the Mac OS X folder layout started bearing fruit. Icons were made somewhat larger, with the font beneath the fonts no longer a standard 9- or 10-point Geneva. Also, the arrows of aliases were made larger (a la Windows). Open and Save dialog boxes were somewhat altered with this version, with some hanging on to Navigation Services while others starting to adopt the new, multi-column dialog box of the Mac OS X era. Already before their first public debut with Mac OS 9.1, the Window menu appeared.
