OS X was officially released on March 24, 2001.
It is 5 years old today!
Wow, I ran OS X beta and 10.00 and for those who remember, it was, well, a dog.
It was 10.2 that OS X finally became usable on a daily basis and it was the 10.3 release that saw X become almost as fast as OS 8/9.
Here is a good summary article: http://arstechnica.com/reviews/os/osx-fiveyears.ars/1
