shouldn't this be called "Apple System Profiler" or "System Profiler (Apple)" ? ☭ мдснєтє тдлк ЅТЦФФ 13:44, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

I remember that Power Macs used to have a full-featured "Apple Macintosh CD" bundled with them, along with the retail System 7.5 as only system software floppy disks, until the retail Mac OS was a full-featured CD-ROM starting with version 7.6, and Apple System Profiler was one of the "extras" included on the "Apple Macintosh CD"s (version 1.0 on the CD bundled with the Power Macintosh 9500/180MP and 9500/200 and version 1.1.2 on the CD bundled with the Power Macintosh 9600), so Apple System Profiler wasn't only bundled with Mac OS 7.6 and later (which were bundled with Apple System Profiler 1.1.3 and later). -- X 6 8 6 07:56, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
Apple may have renamed their second-generation OS for the Mac "OS X" from "Mac OS X", but that's not necessarily a reason to rename this page to give the current name for one of the two flavors of Mac operating system that included a "System Information" application. GIven that the "classic" Mac system software also had it, putting "OS X" in the title is misleading; if "Mac OS" is deemed inappropriate because "Mac" was dropped from the second-generation OS's name a few years ago (even though the Mac OS page covers both OSes), perhaps "System Information (Mac software)" or something such as that would be appropriate.
I'm not personally at all bothered by "System Information (Mac OS)", however. Guy Harris ( talk) 21:00, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
