Dazzla Veteran Posted April 1, 2005 Veteran Share Posted April 1, 2005 lol?? april fools say has rules?? 585710343[/snapback] That's the second time I've had this reaction, must be an American thing, because any April fools after midday is, ooooooo, bad luck. But the general consensus is that you just don't do them after midday. Maybe it's a Brit thing.

Devoto. Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hopes dashed again :( Knowing that Tiger has reached gold master status gives me even more reason to believe that all Apple products displayed next week April 5-7 at Washington D.C'.s FOSE convention will be pre-loaded with Tiger. With heavy hitters from Intel and Dell giving keynotes Apple needs something to steal the show and the aforementioned may just do it.

If they haven't announced anything by now, they won't. I would guess the 5th or 12th for an announcement.

I guess you have to take the person's time zone into account though with a worldwide community such as this.
