Apple has put up a page for Snow Leopard:

Hot. Especially the OpenCL, multi core efficiency, and Quicktime X parts.

Snow Leopard dramatically reduces the footprint of Mac OS X, making it even more efficient for users, and giving them back valuable hard drive space for their music and photos.

Time for me to get a Mac (Y)

I never watched that motion picture.

Anyways, Sneaux Leopard seems awesome. I hope it's free. I would totally flip if it was, OMG.

I will make this prediction that it won't be free due to the circumstances of apple.

During the Puma era in transition to Cheetah. Apple wasn't that popular at all w/ OS X and XP was favored by the majority @ the time. The tables have turned indeed though, OS X is craved by many and that demand will cause Apple to charge for it. But I will say that Apple may not charge the regular $129 for current Leopard owners, maybe half price?

Who knows.

well... im no developer really but i always enjoy the news at wwdcs since im really interested in. however, i dont really get that snow-leopard-stuff. what is it supposed to be? is it an .X or an .x.X release? and does the consumer version sport ZFS?

thanks in advance! =)

well yea, usually thats right and i know that but i would say its more like a service pack surpreme, maybe.

i mean its called leopard still, in this early stage they are only talking about some minor yet quite big changes but nothing that really would justify a whole new .X release. but then again too much for just another .x.X release...

Snow Leopard definately will be a nice update, worth a price even maybe, just because of these added features.

I hope they will scrap the current QuickTime UI and design a brand new one, because I'm sorry to say that, but Media Player on Windows handles videos much much better.

And why QuickTime X? X is cool, but the version will be 8, so I'm guessing they will change it completely...

And Safari, safari... well, they can add all the work they did in Webkit already, and new features will be welcome for sure in Safari. The Browser is great and all, but there's no features. Except that "search on this page" feature that actually darkens the whole page and highlights the occurences of what you're looking for. That was the most brilliant thing ever they could do with search, but other than that... nothing :p

Since the new iPhone 2.0 and iPhone 3G is out, I've been meaning to ask a question that has had me wondering. With the new iPhone 2.0 software now enables you to open Word, Powerpoint and Excel, would it be possible to hook up the iPhone to a projector and show it there? The reason I'm asking is that my father would like to use the iPhone, if it is possible, for that instead of bringing his Mac Mini to work.

    • I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.
    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
