xlr8yourmac.com had this typo on its site a day or two ago. i don't think att had any insider info, someone just hit 11 instead of 10. we will not see mac os 11 for at least another 7 or 8 years (maybe mac os X version 11.0)

Do you think that when mac os XI comes out, the GUI will have a total over hull, or they will do like nearly all the updates prior to X and keep the same GUI with sudle changes

That's gotta be a typo for 9 & 10.

well i don't think it will be 7-8 years off (that's an exceedingly long period of time for an OS), it will probably be 2-4 more at least, OS 11 won't happen until something MAJOR comes along... like neural interfaces :)

Well personally, I won't be totally happy with an installation of OSX until it goes up to eleven.:o

mac os 11 is probably about 2 to 4 years away from now. i can't really think of what it will even look like, but i'll be happy:)

bring on the next iTunes!!!

yes, I don't think Apple is going to call their OS '11' until the number 11 becomes really cool...which might take a while. In the meantime they will probably stick to OS X 2 (or OS X 20.0) or something like that. But if they keep their pace of a .1 update every year, we still have 7.5years left, so I would not worry too much about it right now ;)

And I'd be REALLY surprised if some AT&T web guy new more than anyone at Macrumors...:D
