Not so! System 7 was by far the best of the Mac OSes and (while it's not very well-suited for power-user tasks) it has the nicest interface of any OS I've yet encountered. New MacOS is just BSD with a pretty skin on it.
I used System 7 through 8.something and enjoyed it a lot. Definitely what made me like Apple after Amiga. Had to abandon it tho, once I got heavily into gaming. Wintendo was where it was at after that
