? = lynx or cougar

Apple has both of these names trademarked. The cat theme is here to stay.
These names could last until around 2011. What a great time to put out OS11 anyway!

 

[majordude]

Ocelot?

Garfield, Heathcliff, Top Cat, Sylvester, Snowball II, Morris, Felix or Tom (with limited edition Jerry Supermouse).

I've highlighted the already used ones...can you find any others that you deem suitable...maybe Cougar and Lynx but thats it...

 

[mrpither]

10.6 = ThunderCougarFalconBird...

 

[mountainbiker80]

Bugs galore will be found, just like with Tiger. A Leopard with fleas for sure!

You have no idea how right you are.

 

[SthrnCmfrtr]

Can anyone tell me if LEAP authentication is still supported?

 

[RRK]

Oh I don't know. Maybe; Cougar, Lynx, Wildcat, and Lion.

 

[Maccus Aurelius]

I passed through the J&R Apple store yesterday and played around with the Mac Pros. Maybe this was just something omitted from their particular machines, but pressing Command+Esc did not activate Front Row.

 

[Simmerl]

10.6 Ocelot.

Then they could name OS 11 Snake or Grey Fox or Sniper Wolf or ...

 

[twoodcc]

I want my Leopard now.

we all do. hopefully this is a very good sign that Leopard is on time

 

[Peace]

That's because it doesnt work in Tiger but does in Leopard.

 

[twoodcc]

I just looked up Cougar on the internet and another name for it is Puma... So I guess that one is out.

they also say Cougar is a Mountain Lion and Panther

 

[Plymouthbreezer]

Can't wait for my new MBP with Leopard pre-installed!

 

[RRK]

they also say Cougar is a Mountain Lion and Panther

...but we have already had Puma and Panther so Cougar could still be an option.

 

[hadleydb]

they also say Cougar is a Mountain Lion and Panther

True and there has been a Panther. So it is possible. Cougar sounds like a great name for the next release after Leopard.

 

[Simon R.]

"Support for resolution independence, which has rudimentary support in Tiger and had been rumored to be arriving with full support in Leopard, remains no where to be found."



What's wrong with Apple these days? They announce features about a year back that are now gone. BIG features like resolution independency and the fast switching between Windows and OS X

 

[Cabbit]

dose quartz express work yet. last i heard it wasnt even enabled in tiger yet.

 

[plinden]

Perhaps I'm missing something, but could someone with access to Leopard explain how a visual braille panel is supposed to work? http://www.thinksecret.com/archives/leopard9a559/source/voiceover-utility06.html

It uses a braille keyboard.

 

[SteveG4Cube]

Works with Tiger on my MacBook.

 

[fooey]

"Individual folders can now be specified to always open in a particular view mode."

WAHOOO

 

[plinden]

It uses a braille keyboard.

I know you can enter text on a braille keyboard, but this is the VoiceOver utility. It seems to be that you can show a panel on screen and set its transparency. I'm not sure how this is supposed to be useful to anyone. That's why I asked for comments from people already using Leopard.

 

[tombarnes]

I'm surprised to see that they haven't changed the aqua scrollbar down the side of the windows yet. I thought they would be looking more like the itunes scrollbars

 

[InLikeALion]

Someone had pointed out very cleverly on the Leopard thread a few days ago that the new scroll bars in Leopard and iTunes, when updated, will look like the ones on the Apple products page. I believe that is correct, since the apple site has obviously been updated to reflect their new hardware and software.

Those scroll bars are nice, and slicker than the 1998 looking iTunes sb's. A tasteful update, I think.
