Mac OS X Tiger Goes Gold

bonch writes "Following up yesterday's story, AppleInsider now reports that Tiger build 8A428 has been deemed the Gold Master for shipping. Sources expect an announcement of Tiger's completion sometime tomorrow." There are far better days to make a product announcement, should a company wish to be taken seriously, but it worked for Gmail!

Eh!??! What gives? I just paid over A HUNDRED DOLLARS for Jaguar... and now, two weeks later, those sums of beaches are telling me that a new version is out??!!? That's not fair! I'm not paying another over A HUNDRED DOLLARS to get the next version, not two weeks after I got Jaguar!

Apple... what the heck did I expect? I knew I should have stayed with Win XP.

Is it just me, or his Slashdot: News for Nerds become Macdot: News for apple hipsters?

It is disguesting that we can't go for a 12 hour period without some kind of Apple "news".

I think his point was that he can run the LATEST Apple OS on his old machine out of the box. Without some serious kernel hacking and years of recompiling, there's no way a modern linux distro will run on your 386.

Of course, there's no way your power supply or hard disk have lasted 14 years, unless they've been off for over 10.
