CONCLUSION
At the end of this lab work, we can conclude that firmware is a level of programming
that exists directly on top of a hardware layer. It's not part of the operating system itself.
The Mac firmware is the first stored program that executes when you turn on a Mac
computer. Its job is to check the computer's CPU, memory, disk drives and ports for errors.
Mac OS is the computer operating system for Apple Computer's Macintosh line of personal
computers and workstations. A popular feature of its latest version, Mac OS X , is a desktop
interface with some 3-D appearance characteristics. For hardware functions such as input

and output and memory allocation, the operating system acts as an intermediary between
programs and the computer hardware, although the application code is usually executed
directly by the hardware and frequently makes system calls to an OS function or is
interrupted by it.
