Run every Intel version of macOS between Mac OS X Tiger 10.4 and macOS Big Sur 11 on Apple silicon with graphics acceleration, so you can run older 32-bit and 64-bit Intel apps like iWork ’09, iLife ’11, Aperture, Final Cut Pro 7, and Front Row, or PowerPC apps like AppleWorks. This marks an exciting chapter in the preservation of Mac history.
