OS X in The Truman Show

[Amaj10]

I was flipping channels and came across The Truman Show on TBS tonight and they showed a shot the production team using OS X. The movie came out in 98, was OS X out then, or were they using a prototype?? Just thought it was interesting.

Are you sure it was OS X? what scene was this?

That was OS 9, in the scean where they were controlling the weather.

looks older then OS 9, more like 7.6 or below (look at the desktop), note the icon.

No, it was OS X running classic J/K ...

The "Special" in the top Menu Bar is the dead give away- that was only used in the *Classic Operating Systems that had Eject and other special options...

Also if you look real close you can see that the Apple Logo (In the upper-left hand corner, is layered or colored...

And biggest point of all... WHERE'S the AQUA?
