First we started with an X. . . Then we made it 25% thinner.

Magical.

no,no it's not a thinner X, it's a concentration of all that is good in X in a smaller package...

[avflinsch]

what does the wave mean? Nothing like a big cat

OS X "Lion Fish"?

 

[Ochyandkaren]

I wonder what the thin font mean.

Lean & Mean perhaps.

 

[cclloyd]

Also amazing that these photos are crystal clear yet part photos arent.

Evolution of the X's

I quickly photoshopped the evolution of the X's: from thin over thick to ultrathin.

 

[Polansky]

I think its gonna be called 'catfish'.
Apple will move from cats to fish.

Nah, that sounds too fishy

 

[definitive]

Ok everyone, we've got new buzzwords for the week: HELVETICA NEUE ULTRA LIGHT! Let's all post it in every comment we make.

 

[pixeldot]

Do not try and make the X thinner, that is impossible, instead try to see the truth.

What truth?

There is no X.

There is no X?

Then you will see it is not the X that is thinner, it is only yourself.

If only;

That's interesting. It's almost a throw back to the first release with a thinner font, but also breaks away from the "cat/German tank" naming scheme. Hmmm. Nice work.

Then again, "space" was a theme for 10.4, the "aurora" was a main focus for the "Leopard" releases, only 10.2, 10.7 and 10.8 seemed to emphasize the names in the logo.

Os x

OS X will be washed away by that wave and OS XI will be announced!!

 

[Baklava]

My feeling says, Monday will be a good day for pro users.

 

[Greg.]

Does anybody else see it?

Brilliant

Wonder if someone at Apple will print that out and pin it on Jony's office door?

 

[runeapple]

Absolutely agree, and I question the 'designers' who find this visually pleasing.

Regardless, I am happy to see a common theme among these pictures that suggests a visual redesign of iOS and OSX at the hands of Jony I've. It can potentially be good.

.

You don't need the ' ' around designers, it is visually pleasing, this was designed with J.I's guidance - who is one of the world's leading designers. So it's not just us - It's far better than past years banners for sure. Elegant, minimal and beautiful.

Given that Apple does not like Java, and killed Rosetta, that might require CPUs with both x86 and ARM cores first (before going full ARM).
