Windows Compatibility and Mac OS X

Mac OS X version 10.4 “Tiger” provides a variety of technologies and features that

enable Mac computers and Windows-based PCs to work seamlessly together. With

Mac OS X, Mac and Windows computers can easily share files, share the same network,

and share the same peripherals, including printers, scanners, and cameras. In managed

networks, Mac and Windows systems can connect to the same file, print, mail, web,

and directory servers.

This compatibility is based primarily on the use of open standards, but Mac OS X also

supports many proprietary Windows protocols, file formats, and other technologies.

This support enables Macintosh computers to be used with Active Directory, Exchange

mail servers, and Microsoft’s VPN server. These technologies are built into Mac OS X, so

you can take advantage of them without the expense and trouble of adding software.

So whether you just send email, shop on the Internet, and play a few games, or you

work in an office where you transfer files daily, share printers, and exchange informa-

tion with Windows users, you’ll find that your Mac has everything you need to work

in a Windows managed network. You’ll also find it easy to access files from your Mac

if you need to work on a Windows system elsewhere on your network.
