Ed, take it as a compliment that people are saying you're better qualified. Everyone is saying they value your judgment and think highly of your skills to evaluate things and think you're pretty insightful (that includes me, too). :)
 
lol.... her ibook
She probably didnt NAME her ibook...
at least i named my Scruffy.... blue dalmation.... though that's a dog name, there's no such thing as a dalmation cat....
 
Thats science fiction nonsense, DarkShadow. Everybody knows that the only way to create a life form is to use a castle with a lightning rod, a few spare parts, and an assistant with a limp.
 
close symphonix - but not quite. they may not teach this properly in Oz, but here in the US every 6th grader knows that the assistant must be a hunchback. the limp is just a pretty normal thing that goes along with hunching over. The reason so little of this work is carried out in the US is our serious lack of castles. :D
 
Thanks Ed, you're right. And the assistant also needs a lisp. And he should rub his hands together eagerly as you shout "Life! Blue dalmation kittens! They said I was mad!"
 
You are mad.

What's next in the cat line of OS's? We've had Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, and now Panther... what else is there, Lynx? Leopard? Cougar? Lion? What would be the best code name for 10.4 in your guys's opinions?

And why suddenly is everyone changing their avatara? Am I going mad?
 
heheheh blue cats with cute dots..... they'd be the cutest little things ever.....It would be possible.... if you somehow got a dalmation dog, and a cat together... and painted the white part of the "Putten" blue, and the dots white. IT WULD BE AMAZING!
 
Tiger, and then Gepard. (my phone is named Gepard already)...

Hey, I changed back to bigger animals in my dreams. Giraffes.

Well, I think Apple is having a split personality thing going on. First off their's Jaguar and Safari. Definitely an African theme. Then there's all the iApps, sort of a hip, wired kind of thing. Now there is the uninspired Appple Music Store name. What does all the above have to do with those shiny red, green and yellow pommes?
 
what if there wont BE a 10.4....... OS 11? Didn't 9 only go up to 9.2? 8 went up to 8.6 though..... i forget about 7, i was pretty young....

1985 - 2.0, 2.1
1986 - 3.0, 3.1, 3.2
1987 - 3.3, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 5.0, 4.3, 5.1
1988 - 6.0, 6.0.1
1989 - 6.0.2, 6.0.3, 6.0.4
1990 - 6.0.5, 6.0.6, 6.0.7, 6.0.8, 6.0.8L
1991 - 7.0, 7.0.1
1992 - 7.0.1P, 7.1
1993 - 7.1P, 7.1P2, 7.1P6
1994 - 7.1.1, 7.1.1s, 7.1.2, 7.1.2P, 7.5
1995 - 7.5.1, 7.5.2
1996 - 7.5.3, 7.5.4, 7.5.5

1999 - X Server 1.0, 8.6, X Server 1.1, 9.0
2000 - X Server 1.2, 9.0.4, OS X Public Beta
2001 - OS X 10.0, 10.0.1, 10.0.2, 10.0.3, 10.0.4, 9.2, 10.1, 9.2.1, 10.1.1, 10.1.2, 9.2.2
2002 - OS X 10.1.3, 10.1.4, 10.1.5, 10.2, 10.2.1, 10.2.2
2003 - 10.2.3, 10.2.4, 10.2.5, 10.2.6

Personal notes here - I started using Macs with OS 7.1 (probably one of those "P" ones, it was on a Performa) - been using 'em since. I also didn't get OS X until after the public beta...and missed out on all the updates from end of 2001 and all of 2002 due to not having an internet connection. I was stuck at 10.1.2 until I bought 10.2.1 (it was a little after 10.2 came out, so the stores were selling 10.2.1 at the time)...was stuck at that until I finally got back online in Feb this year and updated to 10.2.3...then almost immediately to 10.2.4. :D

You guys should check out the site I got that from - it has tons of information on it, not just release dates. Also has developer releases and info on what Macs the stuff installed on to.

Erm...don't wanna go against the board rules, so I won't post the link, but do a google search for Mac OS History. It's the first result that shows up (for me at least).

'Case anyone's wondering, I posted all of that just to show there's no knowing when Apple is gonna bump it up to the next OS version. ;)

Plus, the nostalgia is nice. :D

How would that be against board rules? :)
