Miss the days when your computer made cheerful chimes, folders had faces, and ClarisWorks was the peak of productivity?
Then you’re going to love Infinite Mac—a delightful, in-browser time machine that lets you boot up classic Macintosh systems from the comfort of your modern setup (no beige hardware required).
Created by Mihai Parparita, Infinite Mac emulates everything from the original System 1.0 (1984, baby!) to the glorious chaos of Mac OS 9.
It’s powered by WebAssembly versions of classic emulators like Mini vMac, Basilisk II, SheepShaver, and now—drumroll please—PearPC, which means early versions of Mac OS X are now live in your browser.
You can actually run OS X 10.1 and 10.3 (Panther!), complete with Aqua gloss and bouncing Dock icons. Is it fast? Not exactly. Is it amazing? 100%.
Even better, you don’t need to dig through a list of disk images. Just hop over to easy URLs like system6.app, macos8.app, or even kanjitalk7.app to jump right into preloaded environments packed with vintage software, old-school games, and that sweet, sweet Mac startup chime.
Whether you’re a nostalgic designer, a curious coder, or someone who just wants to see how we survived with 9-inch monochrome displays, Infinite Mac is a beautiful slice of digital history—fully open source and free to explore.
Want to tinker, contribute, or just geek out over old UIs? The project is on GitHub too.
Go ahead. Open a browser tab and relive the Mac renaissance—no SCSI cables required.
