Hey all i was thing about it and found that october fifth is a friday (10/5/2007, or 10.5)i think that would be the day they release it, it would go along great with the whole cult of apple
what do you all think>
5/10/2007 or 5.10
I think we will see it before October because they failed to release it in Spring so they will want to deliver early this time.

But they said it was delayed till October
But they said it was delayed till October
and everything that they say is always true?
That's my mother's birthday. Nothing would make her happier than to see Leopard released on her birthday.
Does not work in the UK or most (if not all) of Europe as it is 5/10/07 over here
Yeah, but since when does Apple care about Europe.

It is not just Europe that uses that date format
. Most of the commonwealth countries do as well.

Why do Americans put the month first? It's crazy talk, like Imperial.

It won't be released before October because of the iPhone. maybe September, but they don't want it to steal the iPhones thunder.
It is not just Europe that uses that date format
And so does Latin America, or most countries in the world fir that matter, but let me rephrase that. Since when does Apple care about anything outside of the US?
Maybe the rest of the world will have to wait until 10th May 2008 (10.5)
Nope.
We have secretly already gotten it over here 4 days ago.
But, I like the October 5th idea! It's on a Friday, so that'll make a gr8 weekend!
DD/MM/YYYY is completely backwards. MM/DD/YYYY is only half backwards. We should all be using YYYY/MM/DD as it makes common numerical sense. The more important numbers are to the left and makes dates much easier to sort.
Oh, and no more inches, feet, yards and furlongs; no more ounces, pounds, or tons; no more cups, pints, quarts and gallons. Bring on the metric system.

Completely off topic.
DD/MM/YYYY is in the correct order of importance when talking about events over a small time frame.
YYYY/MM/DD would be useful when using a much broader time frame.
As you said the most important data should be left.
Metric system for the win?
Geez, come on folks. It is friggin May and you are posting an irrelevant forecast that has zero value.
My birthday is on October 5th, too.
It seems like early October will be very good for me.
October 4- Classes will start at the LSE
October 5- My birthday, Leopard release!
Good stuff.

LOL, this is exactly what I posted some time ago about may 10th -->10-5-07-->10.5...
Off-topic:
the metric system rocks
what the hell is up with the imp system anyway?
12 inch = 1 foot,
3 foot = 1 yard,
5.5 yards = 1 pole,
4 poles = 1 chain,
1760 yards = 1 mile??
geez, glad to have the metric system here
1km= 10 ham = 100dam = 1.000m = 10.000dm = 100.000cm = 1.000.000mm
this rocks XD imperial is for suckers

i can certainly see apple doing something like this. when jaguar (mac os x 10.2) launched, they released it at 10:20p. but i think the release month was august. still, earlier in october the better.
