Screenshots of Mac OS X 10.3 Panther Leaked
gorman writes "Screenshots of Apple's next major update to OS X, Panther (10.3), have finally been leaked to the web. For months very little has been known about Panther, with only several minor rumors here and there. These screenshots show off many new features, including the return of labels, a brand new Safari-like finder, and an interesting window management system called Exposé. In addition, the screenshots show off refined visuals and improvements to all of the included Apple applications, such as video support in iChat and enhanced spam filtering in Mail. While these screenshots show off a pre-release version of Panther, it's definitely interesting to see what Apple is working on! Steve Jobs will demonstrate Panther during his keynote this Monday at WWDC and will make it available to developers."
It's on apple.slashdot.org, and most certainly on-topic. You can disable all articles related to Apple easily in your preferences. Oh wait, maybe you can't, you're an AC. Gosh, sucks to be you.
Switch back to Slashdot's D1 system.
Anyone want to put down bets as to how much this minor update is going to cost Apple owners? $100? $200? $300? I remember when my school got reamed from upgrading from 10.1 to 10.2

Tommy St. Fuckhead: you're such a self-indulgent fag. Fuck off.
its because its fake
Me thinks it funny to... me never see nice looking OSS UI... me never seen a professional looking OSS UI... me only see cheap rip of of Win UI with cheaper looking mac os rip off UI's.
Me must stop talking like this, me head spinning. Me out of here.
I can't wait for some Mac-ass to scold people reminding them that it hurts Apple.
What do you mean /. hasn't jumped on the rumor bandwagon? /. has every inane rumor about MacOSX that comes along... about two days late when they're worthless to those interested...and a grevious waste of the bandwidth. /. is about as timely as an over UPS package that arrives later than scheduled.
/. 2 days on average on ANY OSX or Apple rumor.
These commends *especially* are true with anything Apple related as MacMinute, MacCentral, plus all the rumor sites will easily beat
Give it up and cover Linux. Half the ideas on Apple are just that: half witted in the first place.
And as someone else already replied to you, the world is not only fucked up, but you are too.
Copying? No innovation? Heck. Lets reeinvent the wheel. Lets patent gravity. Lets patent Cameron Diaz' looks.
So noone can claim to use gravity again, use anything with wheels or be blonde, slim, etc.
That means anything, either of importance or not, can be used ever again.
Heck. Careful. I might sue you for breathing the same way I do, through your lungs.
In short, you can shove your pathetic little rant up your mac loving arse.
/. Where the truth
You're saying an awful lot after seeing only a few beta screenshots which, sobering as it is, do not show anything earth-shattering. Do all Mac users display such flagrant baseless sensationalism, or is it just you?
but still the old crappy half implemented document orientated interface that used on most computers.
All current GUIs are little more than rehashes of work done by Xerox 30 years ago.
Doesn't anybody have any _better_ ideas? Is the mouse actually an improvement on a well designed keyboard interface? Are icons really a good idea?
Have we already, after just a few tries, invented the perfect user interface and all that's left to do is a bit of prettification?
