Just posted this in another thread, the retail disks are 10A432.

I have been running it for the last few days and really like the refinements they have made, the have also improved how laptops connect to wireless networks afer waking from sleep, which was one of my biggest issues with 10.5. Found a few bugs here and there but thats to be expected

Another person here saying 10A432.

We're ahead in Australia so lots of people have the retail discs/up-to-date ones already. All the same build.

I work for an Apple reseller and have been seeting up 10.6 machines since wednesday in preperation for the Launch in our stores. I have installed about 20 machines so far, all the same build, all boxed retail disks.

Anyother build numbers will be for machine specific disks (The grey ones that come with a new machine)

Never had a problem with that... ever since Panther WiFi connected right away.

Under Leopard I have seen a few times where I will open up my Macbook and it won't connect to Wifi for a while or won't even show the wireless network as being available. I closed and reopened it and it found the network right away. Rare but a bit annoying when it did happen.

That was the issue. I only had a few machines with it, but it would do it almost everytime the machine would wake up.

So guys, its confirmed that Quicktime X will not be release for Leopard and Windows? I will not be updating to SL anytime soon.

Well Quicktime X is touted as a new feature for Snow Leopard, so it's unlikely to be released for Leopard. I wonder if copying the .app over would work though?

As for Windows, well it depends whether Apple wants to compete with WMP more. Quicktime is crap on Windows and WMP12 supports .mov out of the box afaik so it might be a pointless move.

the architectures are incompatible, i just tried running quicktime player from my SL partition on my 10.5.8 OS X and it does not work.

remember that Quicktime X is not just the Quicktime Player.app, it is a core framework of the OS similar to how webkit is to Safari.

I still believe that Leopard might get some of the power and maybe the UI, Windows if anything might get only the UI and nothing more

SL being a hybrid OS is confusing for the average end user however it does make the "choice" and transition from 32bit to 64bit waaaaaaay easier.

The average user doesn't even know what the kernel is. Let alone if it's running in 32 or 64-bit;);)

One of my cousin will be upgrading to Snow Leopard and she is not much of a power user. Is the upgrade smooth in click-next-click-next-install mode? I don't have a intel Mac to try it myself. I have asked her to back up :D but just wondering?

They why does Apple need to advertise it to average user? :p

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
