What version of Mac OS was ever meant for more technical consumers though? Apple's DNA has always been consumer product focused in everything they build.

Obviously they were never exclusively marketed towards technical users, but Apple was definitely targeting the UNIX workstation and multimedia workstation markets in the early 2000s.

That's an ad for the PowerBook G4 marketed to power users of the platform.

See http://www.apple.com/mac-pro/performance/ for comparison of the difference in marketing.
