Taligent

I fused talent with intelligent (how the name was formed) to make a colour (the Pink OS) the future of the Mac (as Pink was intended to be), but never made it (Apple backed out in 1995, and the following year bought NeXTSTEP and started work on what led to Mac OS X). What was I?

I look forward to your putting alternative cases.
