Mac OS X 10.1.5 Released!

Lol. Well I KNOW it's going to be released tomorrow. :p

Anyway, I tried changing the thread title, but it never changes in the forum. Sorry. :\

Just look for "Mac OS X 10.1.5 ACTUALLY released" or something to that effect. :p
 
call me a jerk for questioning this thread?:rolleyes:

... or did they call me jerk 'cause they know me:eek:
 
i appreciate that you tried to fix the thread title, Sim.

i hope i didn't come across as hostile before, i was just mildly annoyed by the false advertising.

guess i'll know better for next time. this is the internet after all, i should've known better. :eek:

anyway, let's see if you're right about today...though i don't doubt it, with the big announcement coming and all...
 
who has the final say as to when an update goes out, or is held back for further "enhnacements"? Jobs? Tenavian? Schiller? Or is it some other dude with a "Project Manager" title.

Either way, it seems that whenver Apple is expected to release an update, they stall, almost as if to say "Hey - we'll release the damn thing when we are ready - not when the general public expects us to".

I mean, the damn thing is on every Mac in all the Apple store's - what's holding it back?
 
Probably nothing other than maybe last-minute bug-fixes and possibly the announcement today.

Seems stable to me though, even if SCSI burning broke for me. (Which is hopefully fixed in the final)

I'm sure someone @ Apple is reading this thread. He's got his mouse cursor hovering above the 'Release 10.1.5' button, grinning at our posts.

4 minutes to go? or 24 hours?
