How many betas do they usually have before a final? 7 or so?

I'm guessing Mavericks will be ready in ~ 6 weeks or so?

iBooks!

Wow, really? I thought that would be a MAS download like on iOS.

Pics?

They need to stop tying Safari to OS releases, then maybe it wont suck so bad. Both IE and Safari tie their new features to a new OS and they both suck really bad for it.

They don't. At least, some come with the OS release but there are also Safari updates in between.

Can anyone tell me if in Mavericks there will be an option to add Outlook in Apple Mail (directly, not via pop3) ?

Does iBooks support PDF files?

Does iBooks support PDF files or just ePub?

If iBooks support PDF files on iOS and ePub files. What makes you think it won't support pdf's

looks like everything same as for iOS devices

There won't be (or at least it would be massively unlikely)

The Microsoft Outlook.com, hotmail, live mail service does not offer imap and that is the problem. Apple could go out of their way to add the proprietary Microsoft delta sync protocol hotmail uses but it would be a lot of effort and have licensing considerations with little benefit for them.

i havent tried a beta since DP2 since my wifi stopped disconnecting every few minutes on my retina mac book pro so i was wondering if this has been fixed and if i should bother again?

do i stand correctly that DP 4 & 5 are only available via mac store updates? so should i download DP3 and update to 5 through the mac store? (i cant check the dev center right now as i am not at uni which has a shared account through my prof.)

I'm not waiting, I'm updating from work. Go Remote Desktop!
