easy to fall into the habit of calling it 10.2 since thats what all the betas have been called before jaguar.

but since jaguar has been so radically different from any of the 10.2 betas, it might just be a 10.5 release.

apple has sent cease and desist letters to websites referring to jaguar as 10.2. i was pretty surprised when i heard that, because before that i had just assumed it would be called 10.2.

i guess apple feels that if they want to get some serious dough for this release they have to make it sound big. 10.5 > 10.2

id like to believe apple would just called it 10.2 sicne thats more accurate, but only time will tell.

Jaguar is 10.2, its almost a fact. Apple tried to erase all references to that, but they failed. The about menu of the installer refers to it as 10.2 and even the sytem profiler! I'll link you to a screenshot of it. Sorry about the circle around 667mhz. Its from a differen't thread.

By the way: 10.2 is much faster. Quicktime launches in ONE bounce. Scrolling in IE is maybe 3x faster than before. Quicktime movie's run faster in games. iDisk's are several times faster. Of course, results may very. This is on a 667mhz powerbook G4 with a radeon mobility (older version).
 
I also have a screenshot from OSX v10.3. 10.3 will be released in the first quarter next year. Apple decided that interface builder and project builder weren't enough. They needed something that could build applications in less than minutes, pure seconds. They're calling it hypercard. The screenshot shows the ultra-intiutive hypercard application programming environment. They also redid the bulky interface of Quicktime 6. Its called Quicktime 3. Overall the OS is much faster at lower level finder related things and is relatively stable. Sources say that Quartz Extreme has advanced in this release in leaps and bounds. It is now accelerated by ALL graphics accelerators. They're calling it Quickdraw. I can't wait for it:

Oh yah. Did I call it 10.3? I meant 7.5.3.

Thanks, that made my morning a little more bearable. :D
 
Spanish flamethrower... (using ground troops)

¿Por qué están uds. hablando en español cuando nadie de uds. la comprenden? Hablen en español formal...si pueden. Si no, no necesitan hablar nada. Yo aprendía más que 4 años de español y en mi opinión, uds. hablan peores que los bastardos codos de un lugar que nadie lo sabe. ¡Mi palabra! Si esta conversación de español continuará necesitan uds. hablar perfecto en español, o hablan en inglés. Yo no tenería ni idea qué lo pasaría si uds. hablarían pro mucho tiempo. Nadie comprendá.

BTW, Happy Birthday, Alpha! :D

Hay muchos aquí que comprenden y hablan español. Fue mi especialización secunda en la universidad.

No lo hablas perfectamente, pues es ridículo que lo requieres de otras personas.

¿Comprendes?

Wanna have a go at French next? :p

[Edit: back to the topic]
jaguar is referred to as 10.2 in the startup disk pane as well.

We'll see what they call the final version.

I'm really enjoying it so far! Guess what? It's snappy!!:D

Yo pensé que Español es más facil que Francés y me encanta español tanto mucho como inglés. Si hay personas hablan español me gustaría hablar en español también. Pero, soy muy estricto cuando personas no hablan perfecto.

Rower_CPU, ¿es posible podemos hablar en español de la revisión de OS X? Pienso mucho que muchas personas gustarán Jaguar cuando las personas pueden recevirla. La quiero ser rápido...no...mucho más rápido que 10.1. No prefiero comprar, pero creo que es necesario.

¿Problemas? Probablamente no.

Si, podemos contunuar en español si lo quieres, pero creo que la majoridad de los miembros aquí no van a gustarlo.

Puede ser que arn va a crear un forum en español si hay tanto interes.;)

"Jaguar" cambiara el mundo de la computación para nosotros, los que usan los Macs. Estoy seguro de esto. :)
 
Pienso que las personas encontran éste educational, si comprenden.

Si Arn hace un forum en español yo visitaría los forums con más frequencia.

Quiero Jaguar hoy, no mañana, hoy! :)

For those who do not understand spanish, I just said that I think that people would find this educational, if they understood it. I continued by saying that if Arn makes a forum in Spanish, I would visit the forums more often. Then I finished with I want Jaguar today, not tomorrow, today. Don't we all feel the same way?

Oh, no. Are we moving towards poetry? :eek:

All right you freaks... stop speaking in tongues and switch back to ENGLISH!!! If you really must converse in other languages, then do it via either PM's, email, or a chat engine (AIM, Yahoo, ICQ and such).

I appreciate it. :)

Look, General, we were just having fun. IMO the forums are more interactive...besides, it's not much different the off-topic discussions people sometimes digress into. If you want, General, I will go back to post.

Hahahaha...just having some fun.

It would be interesting if arn made a foreign language forum...everyone conversing in whatever language they wanted to...too cool. :)

What can I say, I dig foreign languages. Good thing, too, otherwise getting my BA in Frencha and Spanish minor would have been hell! :D
 
Well, there private, at least with the off topic postings, everyone knows what you are saying...:p

I just called and left the message for the person who owns the computer that I just fixed... two hours worth of work, and it is back among the living and fully updated (both OS 9 and OS X to the latest versions). It had damaged directories, an unblessed system folder (OS 9.x) and some heavy fragmentation. All better now, and I didn't even need to do any voodoo. :D

I want to learn Russian, but need to find the time and figure out how to go about it. I know that there is software to help you learn, but I don't know if it is worth getting.

I hated taking Spanish in high school, just glad it never came into play at college (no foreign language classes there :p).

as for the forum with everyone typing in whatever language they want... ever hear of that little building called the tower of babble???

You mean "Babel", right? :p
