First run in Rhapsody DR2
First run in Rhapsody DR2. The screenshot has an extra border (remove).

Rhapsody starts with an elegant Setup Assistant, asking for basic questions regarding network connection, time and date, and preliminary user accounts. Even if it might be seen as part of setup process, it is included here, because it comes after Rhapsody announces the setup is successfully completed.

The desktop is in 1024×768, because even if it can be run at 640×480, Rhapsody as a descendant of OPENSTEP was clearly designed to run on high resolutions.



Empty desktop

The desktop bears very big resemblance to Mac OS, with the only menu at the top of the screen, and assorted icons for drives and applications placed on the right side.
