completely different, namely "System Software", all the way down to
its first 1.0 iteration, if I'm not mistaken. Once Stevie came back
on board and we were dealing with the NeXT based Mac OS that we all

Truth of you, thank you very much! ;)
The "Mac OS" name, as introduced with Mac OS 7.6, had a space in it.
This was well before the NeXT deal.

That's really odd, I was also 100% convinced that it was called
"MacOS" rather than "Mac OS" between 7.6 and 9.2.2... I wonder why.
