I think the thing we will see in the summer is the thing apple was thinking of releasing as 1.0, but they probably realized that it would be better to release it as a beta, showing…

Apple's site now has the Mac OS X tab, as most of you probably have read. The theater has been updated to reflect dock changes, and there is a ton of other info there, including c…

Totally!! Not only that, but check out the PDF section of the Mac OS X developer section!! Lots of updated stuff including interface guidelines etc.. don't know if it'll be up lon…

Hi, I have to think Apple knew all along that X wasn't going to out this summer. They lead us on. Public beta? Any drivers for it? Will it work? Can I sync my Visor? Print to my 7…

4 years is being kind. Copeland was supposed to be Apple's modern operating system and that's what we are still waiting for, I think OS X will deliver. My point is that the Mac has…

And why shouldn't we look for sumatra? Microsoft no longer owns Soft, and Avid is already a Mac developer. I'm just saying that if Softimage knows what's good for them they'll ge…

Hi, Quote: Does anyone remember CricketDraw? I used to use CricketGraph. That was a good applciation. I bet we still have an SE around here with that instal…

psst - Scott! We WILL see OS X by August! That's when summer ends (okay technically Sept., but August for practical purposes). Don't be so down... you can make an OS X partition …

i think you can pretty much count on epson and iomega (beta) drivers by the time of OSX beta. well, zip drive (at least) should be supported in the generic osx usb drivers. and w…

Hi, Yea you'ld think but we were told to count on OS X this summer. HP? Don't get me started on them. They are still lagging on drivers for OS 9. Scott H.

OSX is the future of Apple. If it fails, Apple WILL falter. It's an inevitability. Apple knew all along that it wasn't going to release OSX 1.0 this summer! That would seriousl…

I'm definitely looking forward to picking up a CD with OS X beta at MWNY this July. I know it will run on my Rev.A iMac. But is there any possibility that OS X will run on my Powe…

I know many of you with good technical knowlege of operating systems would scream "What?" and you could list pages and pages of the features why Mac OS X is much better than the cu…

go to your room, sit in the corner, look at the wall. you must not have worked with dp3 or dp4. when os x is released you will be mad at apple because it could have been done muc…

Hey, be nice. Realistically, the average Joe will not need OS X until Jan. 2002, by my guess. There are certainly enough developers and such, but it will take time for even the m…

Do we need MacOS X? [sarcasm] Obviously not. It is going to force us to sacrifice extension conflicts and system crashes. My system has been tweaked to the point where I can rest…

wlonh, what is this FUD thing you talked about? Really, I know many of you have used complex operating systems such as UNIX, Linux and Mac OS X is a breeze for you to use. But I …

Idler- fitting name. You can continue to use System 6 because we really don't need good support for color, and who needs that crazy "multifinder" anyway? I need to conserve proce…

Orbit, let's be sensible here, don't compare oranges with apples. The topic is meant for discussions.

Okay- here's the deal. You may be fine with the way things are, but there are problems with the Mac OS at a very low level which Apple can't continue to patch forever. In order t…

Idler, the question you ask is whether OS X will ultimately benefit the 'ignorant' end user (ignorant signifying a lack of knowledge about the OS innards, as well as a lack of inte…

The previous two explanations are well received. But do you think wouldn't it be better if Apple has built a new Mac OS on new technologies but that it has the same files structur…
