All Mac OS X versions available in October for $129



Uploaded by: uberpulse
Video Description:
Not much news about Leopard, Apple's next version of the Mac OS X operating system. During his keynote, Steve Jobs talked about 10 out of the 300+ new features. You'll find more details on Apple's web site on Leopard, here (all the new features), here (what Jobs presented) or in last year's press release!
Overall, I liked the native 64-bits support, which means that we should see very soon a refresh of the Mac mini line which is still shipping with a 32-bits processor, Bootcamp ("the most compatible and fastest solution to run Windows on a Mac"), Time Machine (an easy to use backup application), and 2 new tools to build widgets for the Mac OS dashboard: one for end-users called the Web Clip tool in Safari, that will turn any web page into a real-time widget that you then can add to the Dashboard; and Dashcode a development environment for professional programmers.
The rest was mainly cosmetic changes to me: new finder, new desktop, workspaces... Pricing-wise, I'm not really happy of forking $129 every other year for just an "update" release of an OS that really should come with the Apple hardware. Isn't it everything about that tight integration between my Mac and the "big cat". In all fairness, Mac OS x/Leopard sure looks cheap when you compare it to... say Microsoft's Windows Vista Home Premium ($160) or Vista Ultimate version ($260)!

It's a joke, Leopard will ship in no more than 1 layout, pricing $129 (I think it will be the same in
€uros.) Jobs listed more versions to ridiculise the confusing variety of Vista's versions and thus prices.

Wow, you stayed at Moscone! the only mess is that person who stayed in front of you when the "versions" were listed.

...That recalled me of a comic strip which appeared on an American newspaper and then on many websites, in which a man went buying a copy of Vista and the vendor listed out all the versions available. Then the man asked which one did he recommended and he promptly answered "MacOs X" :-D

that's a big difference, Vista Ultimate, which sucks costs $130 more than Leopard, i still don't get why people think that Apple makes pricey products if they are actually cheaper and better

yeah but the service packs dont change the look or the feel. rather it mostly just gives security updates so that the os doesnt fail. windows is hopeless. yes the mac os update will cost money, but i'd pick it any day over windows vista(more expensive-less quality).

More precisely I think the strip pointed out at the fact MacOs X has always had one version and the vendor suggested a less confusing alternative, but the substance is always "dump PC buy Mac"
