Mac OS X Server 1.2
Released January 14th, 2000 Mac OS X Server 1.2 was an update to the original Mac OS X Server which was the first release from Apple after their acquisition of NeXT. This was an odd operating system made from a combination of Mac OS, Nextstep and what would be Mac OS X.
Unlike all versions of Mac OS X from the public beta onward Mac OS X Server 1.2 used Display PostScript for screen drawing. Display PDF was (and still is) used in the final Mac OS X.

Workspace Manager is basically the Finder.
OS X Server 1.x limits you to using a UFS (UNIX File System) formatted drive as the boot disk. All released versions of Mac OS X work on normal HFS+ drives.
Classic under OS X Server 1.x doesn't need you to install a copy of 8.x or 9.x for use with Classic mode, it will copy a small system folder into a new disk image just for you. Kinda sucks that this was changed in later versions.
Tear-off menus work on almost every menu in this version. Later Mac OS versions such as Mac OS X Developer Preview 2 that will only let you do it on a few menus.
I must say that isn't the most attractive calendar I've seen.
This will let you change the colours of the window elements. Some of the presets include NeXT-style colours.
Very basic settings for this. No desktop picture option is available.
The sample text is so silly. I love it.
This will let you change how the system acts to make it more NeXT-like (in its own way).
This lets you choose how disk mounting is treated.
The tester forgot to check what the login screen saver looked like. It was probably pretty basic.
Nothing too special in here.
Again, nothing special in here.
I like the extra control given in this version for network services.
Here's the basic process viewer and the force quit window.
Both a normal find file search and a more advanced content-based search are available.
You just gotta love the Java loading icon used here. A coffee maker.

The listing of groups in the NetworkManager.
Local users setup by default.
Not surprising this showed up with no extra hardware installed on the test system.
This is the supplied backup program.
Mac OS X Server 1.2 includes a basic web browser application called OmniWeb 3.
Here you can see OmniWeb showing the Apache welcome page.
The QuickTime Streaming Server Admin application lets you change and monitor your streaming server.
