Technobob Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I hope this is just is another rumor, I really want to see Leopard out soon, I don't see Apple delaying Leopard for 6 month just to add support for Vista. http://www.digitimes.com/systems/a20070322PD214.html Apple is expected to launch its next generation Leopard operating system (OS) in April, but according to industry sources, the release of the new OS will be postponed to October to allow Apple to make Leopard support Windows Vista through an integrated version of its Boot Camp software.

lord_muad_dib Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 it would be a stupid move imho, after all vista is almost fully supported already afaik Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/46177-apple-reportedly-to-postpone-leopard-to-support-windows-vista/#findComment-330590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
macprodan Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Exactly what I Thought, Written rather poorly. I Think they might be trying to Say that Leopard will Support Bootcamp and an Instance of Vista running at same time as OS X Leopard... Now that would be cool.

myzar Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 This doesn't make anysense postpone an os just to write a bunch of vista drivers for common hardware. I don't buy it at all. Maybe they finally figured out that leopard would be such a giant failure without adding new features and a new gui Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/46177-apple-reportedly-to-postpone-leopard-to-support-windows-vista/#findComment-330696 Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda75 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I'd highly doubt that they are waiting on bug fixes with bootcamp concerning Vista. Apple wouldn't be taking such jabs at Vista in their ads if they thought Vista support was such a big marketing tool. Don't get me wrong, Windows support is a selling feature, I just don't think they'd delay Leo over it since most people will still be on XP for quite a while. There is no reason why they couldn't just fix any Vista issues in a quick update as soon as it's ready. Besides, even if Apple did delay Leopard for another 6 months. It's not like we'd be waiting 5 years for it.

INFNITE Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I expect Leopard to be released on time probably right before WWDC (or be announced at WWDC and will be shipping on that day) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/46177-apple-reportedly-to-postpone-leopard-to-support-windows-vista/#findComment-332525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
