Apple Prepping OS X 10.5.7 Update

[Eric S.]

wtf is with this RAW images BS I keep hearing about with the Apple updates.

I never in my life encounter problems with RAW Images, I don't know what it is maybe they're smoking crack someone fill me in if not just bitch at my comment in reply.

What are you talking about?

And BTW SNOW LEOPARD IS COMING OUT APRIL

Highly unlikely.

Also, hopefully, Mac OS 10.5.7 will make the system look good with 2.2 gamma. I have seen some complaints that when people switch from 1.8 gamma to 2.2 gamma everything is darker. The UI is darker and is not as "nice".

I've always used 2.2 gamma.

Default makes everything look washed out..

Calibrated 1.8 looks fine. 2.2 is a little bit too dark. I hope 10.5.7 or Snow Leopard will fix this. Apple did make Mac OS X with intent to use for 1.8 gamma.

Really? Apple intended OS X to look like it does on 1.8? Link? Shall we argue matte v glossy on this issue too then? Did Apple intend OS X to look like it does on a matte screen or glossy?

1.8 is the default gamma, looks fine if you are used to it. But compared to 2.2, 2.2 has much deeper colours.

Snow Leopard apparently will have 2.2 gamma by default.

So how would 10.5.7 "fix" this gamma issue?

... No, it really isn't.

... No, it really isn't.

And I will be very conservative on Snow Leopard, I will say August or September.

 

[Eric S.]

I'm looking to December. That will be 10.6.2, the first version sufficiently bug-free to really try.

Probably release date annoncement in WWDC and I think Septemberish might be the earliest feasible guess...

It seems with Leopard the first sufficiently bug-free release will be the 10.5.7 that should fix syncing issues. That aside, Leopard has been good since 10.5.4 but I still can't sync my phone so in that regard Tiger still wins.

What is the point of releasing the Safari 4 beta if you won't be able to reinstall it in about a month? That doesn't make sense to me.

It doesn't work with the 10.5.7 beta. Do you really think that it won't work with the real release?

 

[confusion12]

Does this mean they fixed the DFU problem in 10.5.6?

 

[CaptainCannabis]

Ooo, so it will not install?

Another good reason to go back to Firefox. firefox just needs to make smooth scrolling good, and it will be the death of ****** crappy safari.

Good job apple,

AppleInsider reports that 10.5.7 is going by the internal code name of project "Juno" and that it is swiftly moving through its development cycle.
