What are the different type Mac os?

Well, there's classic Mac OS (Mac OS 1 -> Mac OS 9), and then there's Mac OS X (Mac OS 10.0 -> Mac OS 10.6 (to be released in 2 days)).If you're wondering what kind of editions there are, like how Windows has Basic, Premium, Ultimate, etc, there are two: Client and Server. Client is what is usually used, but Server is if you need to do special internet related activities, such as hosting a website.Client is $129 (Leopard)Server is $1000, I believe (Leopard)Again, Client is the primary version (it is often just referred to as Mac OS X, not Mac OS X Client), and Server is strictly for computers that need server-like capabilities, so it is often regarded. Many people will say that there is only one version of Mac OS X, referring to Mac OS X Client.

How do you downgrade from Mac OS X to Mac OS 9?

You cannot without erasing your hard drive and installing Mac OS 9 from scratch. Even then Mac OS 9 may not run on modern Mac hardware because Mac OS 9 needs the ROM chip to boot. Modern Mac OS X hardware uses EFI to boot the system instead of a ROM chip to boot. Mac OS X v10.0 - Mac OS X v10.4 support Mac OS 9 applications and can run them, you just need to install the Mac OS 9 compatibility program which can be found on the Mac OS X Install CD.
