10.4 on Display at FOSE

CmdrStone writes "Just thought I'd post to let people know that while at FOSE today in the Washington, D.C. Convention center I lingered at the Apple pavilion / booth. To my surprise every machine had 10.4 running. The build number matches the build number found on the rumor sites; 8A428. Does this presage Tiger hitting the shelves soon? Personally, my main interest was how much iSync was expanded to support more devices, phones, etc. The Apple rep confirmed that the number of devices has expanded. He lamented that his Symbian phone, the Nokia 9500 Communicator, still was not included in the supported phones. He did tell me that he was able to tether his Powerbook and get online via his 9500's T-Mobile connection."

    They're not entirely new OSes, they're just 00.x updates. Comparable to a Windows service pack. And 00.0.x updates are comparable to major MS security updates.

    It is NOT offtopic. It is called a response to another post. Did you rate the post I responded to "offtopic" too? No, you didn't?! Ah well, that shows you didn't pay attention. Bad moderation, indeed.

    Probably it will be "Tiger".

    But anyways, in the future, since everyone knows the Apple Windows is based on Linux, they will probably move towards really fucking stupid names like Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog. Now there's a catchy/sexy name if I ever heard one.
