Technically Claud… did not require a response because there was no question mark. Bring on Leopard I say..but then I’m biased. I want Leopard, but Have mac OS 10.4.8 … well Im sure its 10.4.8, could be 10.4, but I’d have to turn on my beautiful Lappy to find out…which I’ll do in a second anyway because itunes is far superior to Windows Media Player, not to mention far more aesthetically pleasing in general…it’s just stupid Telstra and ADSL thingy wont work on my mac, and Telstra wants me to put some wierd program or something on my lappy to make it work…THEY SHALL NOT TOUCH IT! It works with every thing else…wireless, other ADSL providers..actually every other internet provider I have stumbled across works fine..it’s just TELSTRA!!! ARGH.…so yes…
why mac has a facsination for naming things after fast cats? well its better that naming it after the year it came out…need I also mention Windows also did the whole thing with numbers and dots to? remember 5.1? wow, now that was fun…but then remember.…windows was born out of macintosh…or something like that…back to names… what is this “vista” business? Mac has been vaguely consistant over the last few years…but microsoft keep changing their naming systems…sorry…I just don’t like windows and the microsoft empire as much as I once did…ive gone to the other side…seen the light…you get the drift :P ;)
Windows Media Player 11 mops the floor with iTunes, which is a bloated piece of crap (yes, I think that about iTunes on OS X, too).
Windows 5.1 was known as XP to mere mortals, but background version numbering is helpful most of the time (if only for gathering stats in a sensible way)… Apple just foreground the numbers massively and limit the cat-thing to alternate box packagings. Tis bizarre.
I’ve drifted the other way, so there we are :P
