For the last five years ever since the first Mac OS X, Apple has been making an Intel version and PPC version. When the Intel version offically starts shipping you won't be able to install it on any PC, only on Apple specific hardware.

warz and stuff aside, what do we think is this thing real or not, I dont think it is, and i think when apple heres of this it means when apple does develop this for the intell processors they will build something into the software to prevent non apple hardware using os x.

Yeah right! Easily faked with Linux. For all I know thats gdesklets running Starterbar and a customized toolar at the top. Try again.

That screeny is definately fake. It even says PowerPC in the processor info of the about box. Jeez. :no:

That's tells you nothing, here's another screenshot (Keynote 2005):

What we need is actual solid evidence...which might take a while longer.

Now that screeny is real. :laugh:

I don't understand how anyone could post a screenshot, even if it were real considering they wouldn't be able to get it running due to no driver support. You could MAYBE get an installer screenshot, but that's as far as it will go.

Yes, it's really easy to be faked... but in that screen is a P4 2,4Ghz with 768 Mb of ram...(not the P4 3,6 with 2GB that Steve used in the Keynote) i thinked that can be true... but...can be a fake

I think a user who commented on the front page made a good argument.  Even if this was leaked - you'll need to come up with drivers to support your hardware.  UNLESS you have the same hardware configs used in the dev builds.

If its based on FreeBSD then it should be easy. Correct?

oh yeah? im sure like windows and linux you do not need drivers to get it to install and boot up. :laugh: sure you wont have sound or 3d graphics or... much of anything else but i bet osx will boot up no less.

There's still no evidence of this being real or fake, so I don't know what to think.

no it has been confirmed fake. :yes:

    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn guns and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.

    • Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...
    • They’re really desperate to ingrain AI into society hoping to tug the heart strings of public to jump unto the boat of destruction to humanity’s individualism.
