Macintosh System 7

My first memories of using computers were when Macintosh System 9 came out and I fell in love with its chunky isometric iconography. However, System 7 sits at a sweet spot of complexity and capability for me. Unlike earlier systems, it doesn't need additional programs to handle multiple applications. But it can also run on more constrained hardware than System 9 like The Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller.
