    Pretty soon, Apple is going to run out of cats to name their OS X versions after. How many are left? When are they going to stoop to calling a new version "Housecat"?

      Once OSX becomes more mature, they can release OSX Cougar.

      One thing is certain, it'll definitely like newer hardware.

    See, I changed one letter, an 'n', for another, an 'l', as a way of making fun of the new release of Mac OS... I don't have any real reason for thinking it's slow, and it's not like I really have anything against Snow Leopard (apart from the fact that I, myself, am not interested in running Mac OS X any more) - it's just fun to make fun of it.

    iSee.

    ...but still, I can't see myself pre-ordering.

    So it broke your webcam too?
