Mac OS X 10.6

Ohhh … brrrrrrr … I love reading all the Apple gossip out there! I just read a tiny post about the next version of Mac OS X, which has never been discussed, is at least 1.5 year away, is unknown to anyone and already I want it!

It’s sad, really. Still I can not help myself.

I have been using Leopard for a while now, it came with my new iMac remember, and I must say it is an enormous improvement over Tiger. Quicklook alone is gold, but Mail 3 really is something else! Just today someone sent me a regular plain text email suggesting we meet next week Monday at 16.00. I moused over his words and a menu popped up, offering to create an event in iCal! Everything was filled in correctly, including time, place and name! That is f*ing amazing!

I guess all you early adapters have known this for years, but for me it was quite a shock. Leopard FTW! And do you really think they are running out of cat names? Think again.
