    "Jaguar" Server introduces more than 50 new features

    So, according to yesterdays "$1 per feature" keynote by Jobs about MacOSX 10.2 (Jaguar), this should cost just $50! ;-)

    Every few years,
    A new Windows came for all to fear
    It started with Windows x.y,
    And then Windows 95
    And every 24 or 36 months it seemed,
    New versions would pop up right to ME n' XP

    If cost summed, for each Windows released
    Over 500 dollars the price would increase!
    One could say the only difference between 98 and ME
    Is a few widgets redrawn and new bugs to be seen!

    When compared to Microsoft, Apple's no better
    They just choose different numbers rather then letters!
    Its not so hard to buy 10.2 or .3,
    If you think of it like buying a brand new XP

    To many Apple is just a corporate beast
    But they do need a pay check at the end of the week
    And unlike Windows' excuse for another crappy update
    Apple has an OpenGL facelift on the entire Quartz draw rate!

    Peace out fools ;-)...
