    The end: macOS Tahoe unveiled

    WWDC Keynote, June 9th, 2025.
    Apple unveiled macOS 26 Tahoe.
    As usual, 1st beta version was immediately made available to developers and 1st public beta will be available in July with a final release in the fall.
     

     
    The major novelty is Liquid Glass that replaces Aqua. And the version numbering, of course, which Apple will now unify across the board (macOS, iOS, etc.).
     

     
    As expected, this is the very last macOS version to support Intel platforms; it will therefore put the final nail in the coffin of Hackintoshing on Intel platforms; after nearly 20 years, it will have been a good run!
     
    Tahoe drops support for all systems older than 9th gen. Coffee Lake, 10th gen. Comet Lake/Ice Lake and Cascade Lake platforms, i.e. those 8th gen. Coffee Lake MacMini8,1/MacBookPro15,x/iMac19,x and Skylake iMacPro1,1 that had remained supported in Sequoia. Surprisingly, 10th gen. Ice Lake MacBookAir9,1 laptops appear dropped too but, given that 2020 ICL-based MBP16,2 remain supported, those last Intel MBA should nevertheless be able to run Tahoe too -to be confirmed-.
     
    Minimum Intel platform requirements are therefore:
    iMac20,x (10th gen. Comet Lake) MacBookPro16,1 (9th gen. Coffee Lake) MacBookPro16,2 (10th gen. Ice Lake) MacPro7,1 (Cascade Lake)
