Just a hint guys, if you have your CD's from WWDC and are afraid to install them...

The buzz internal is that the DR is about 99% as stable as Retail Jaguar. ;) However, as with ALL (including retail) OS's, if it does bomb your machine it's not their fault (nor mine. ;))

i can't take anymore of these screenies man... it's just so "goOOOOd".. but i don't want to install this preview one...

arggggg... Apple is evil!!!!!

why not? they gave it to the developers...its not just some sh*tty build

i just don't want to install it twice. :D you know, i prefer a clean install. so if i install this build, i'm gonna format again when the final version is released.

Sorry, we are all under NDA and cannot give you anything from a prelease OS. :rolleyes:

I was going to say...

All images included in the Developer Release of Mac OS X 10.3 (Codename: Panther) are Copyright © and Trademarks of the Apple Computer Corporation and are not authorized for ripping by Windows Themers.

;)

Panther is ours guys, you can try to recreate from screenshots but for now I hope the community will agree we should keep this one to ourselves for now.

If ever there was a way for us snoby Mac users to make humble PC user hate us it would be to only post highly compressed images of our desktops. No high res pictures, no details, no roll overs, "theme this" a--holes ;)

I'm going to go through and start writting up a review/screenshot fest. I'll try and show most of the changes.

Keep in mind guys Apple is VERY interested in squishing Windows themes using the new version 3 Aqua images, to my knowledge they've already sent one Cease and Desist letter for one Panther skin and are watching for any others, and they do have eyes in the most unlikely of places. ;)

nice OS, i installed it in my iMac and am amazed at it! Finder is faster then before, with a better interface, and the labels feature is amazing!I don't know why they ever took that feature out of the OS, but I'm glad its back. The redesigned ASP is nice too. My only gripe is that my Netgear MA101 wireless router can't work on 10.3 yet, since Belkin didn't release 10.3 drivers for their products (i use hacked belkins to work with my netgear). Ah well, back to 10.2, when 10.3 comes out I'm doing the full PC -> MAC switch! (Thats how much I love panther already)

I installed Panther on a second partition yesterday, and I'm impressed. Very nice new features, and it's Snappier?. [rant] However, I don't like the new Finder. It's fast and all, but the GUI is horrible. First of all, I loathe brushed metal. Why do Apple insist on making every single one of their apps brushed metal? Now, that can be remedied, but the iTunes-like bar on the left is pretty stupid to me.. I'd rather have those "shortcuts" at the top of the Window, in the toolbar (like we have it now). Third, the desktop selections look dumb. Darker background around the icons and a blue label??

I really hope they'll give it some more thought and work before the final version is shipped. If not, I hope we can hack the crap out of the Finder to make it look acceptabl:):)

    • No, size is not the only selling point. I did not even remotely say that. Your claim was that "building your own will be faster and cheaper". This is false. You cannot build something close to that form factor with off-the-shelf parts. You can build a Mini-ITX PC and pay more, or something larger and pay less. But these are different market segments. It's apples and oranges.
    • There is a default resolution setting in Settings > Display that can be changed with a click. You can also change the settings on a per-game basis. No CLI needed. Also, Steam has countless games that are not "[perpetual] alpha/beta games", so no need for the straw man. Plus you can use other stores as well. And console games (e.g. PS5) cost a fortune, which itself more than negates the price subsidy on the system, unless you plan on exclusively playing 1 or 2 games. It's true that you shouldn't buy a system that doesn't support the game(s) you want to play, but I think that's kinda obvious, and applies to every console as well as PC. I don't game in the living room and have no need of a Steam Machine, but there is a clear market segment that would find it useful.

RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
