Brandon Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I feel like SL just came out. In fact, most of my friends still have Leopard on their Macs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inklin Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 OS X SL does feel pretty new still considering we are only on 10.6.4 - but then it still will be a while until we get our paws on 10.7! /me wubs his hackintosh :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanctified Veteran Posted October 13, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hope is a new DECENT Macbook Air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Probably a new MacBook Air too. Maybe iLife 11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshBluebird Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Probably MacBook Air update. Would love an i3 / i5 in the 13" MBP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted October 13, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2010 iLife '11, OS X 10.7 and MBA update are my predictions. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 The "big cat" pictured looks a lot like a lion or a tiger. OK, "Tiger" has been used... But each "big cat" release is a major point release (10.5 being Leopard, 10.6 being Snow Leopard, etc)... But I thought we were gonna get a 10.6.5 long before we saw a 10.7? Yet the cat usage does suggest a major point release... Confused much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avlor Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I'd be damned if they roll out i3 13" MBP as mine is only 1 month old. But a new OS release is always interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the cat usage does suggest a major point release... Confused much! Looks nothing like a tiger tbh. Even if they announce 10.7 next week doesn't mean we'll be seeing it for a good while yet. Maybe next summertime... 10.6.5 will come before that. There isn't much that needs to be fixed up in 10.6 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calum Veteran Posted October 13, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2010 I'm hoping its news about 10.7 and I reckon it will be, due to the lion in the picture. I don't think 'Mac OS X Lion' has much of a ring to it, but that's what it probably will be :D I love a lot of features of Mac OS X, so if they happen to overhaul their 'dock' idea so it functions more like Windows 7's taskbar, they may win me over this time.

neufuse Veteran Posted October 13, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) You guys need to go to the zoo more often.... That is a lion in the picture, look at the facial structure, the hair and the maine that is visible I'm hoping its news about 10.7 and I reckon it will be, due to the lion in the picture.

DavidM Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Probably - iOS4 (Lazy Lion) for the Mac, wasn't there speculation they were moving ios to the mac platform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neufuse Veteran Posted October 13, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 13, 2010 Probably - iOS4 (Lazy Lion) for the Mac, wasn't there speculation they were moving ios to the mac platform? if they ever did, they'd lose a LOT of their user base.... you'd be switching from a true multi tasking environment to a fixed do one thing at a time environment... so no wokring on you webpage and photoshop and dragging between the two....

threetonesun Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 It's probably 10.7, which will release next year. Maybe iLife 11 too. I'd love to see stronger iOS OSX integration. Like being able to run apps on either platform, although I realize they have to keep iOS somewhat separate to not cripple the revenue stream of companies selling desktop software.

I thought ios4 had true multitasking, it doesn't? I'm sure they would have to make some "adjustments" to ios4 to use on the mac platform, but aren't they also talking about touchscreens for the mac as as well, which would mean "adjustments" for osx as well. Wouldn't ios4 be easier to port to the mac than changing osx to use the touchscreens properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
