Numberzz Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 AppleInsider states that Apple has chosen October 26th as Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard's shipping date. Currently, Apple has only said that it plans to ship this update to its Mac OS X operating system in October. As of today(Thursday the 4th), Leopard's code had not yet been finalized and a Gold Master had not yet been declared. However, the operating system in recent weeks has become very close to this status with the last full builds including only one known issue. The GM should be released to developers within 10 days in order to reach that date. According to tradition, Apple has chosen the last Friday of the month to release this latest major operating system update. Full Story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TvvqKMZ72bsklauw5 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 SWEET! I hope to get my copy on launch; does Apple usually have enough to go around for everyone at launch or do they sell out? (Just wondering, I've never been to a launch of an Apple OS, nor have I been to a launch of ANY OS ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegodfaza Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 niiiice. It can't reli go worse than Vistas launch. Peace - luke255 Â I beg to differ with the iMac problems. Maybe they will fix those issues with new iMacs with leopard installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â True that has been a bit disappointing but that is the hardware side, not really tied to the release of Leopard. That said I think some new macbooks are expected... We shall see!

Colonel Ingus Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 shall i wait untill the 26th then? Is this a joke? Why would anyone want to spend all of that money for a computer only to end up with a old operating system a few weeks later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osx_guy Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 no joke intended. Just its a new os and so could have issue's as most new os do/ cough vista. but hey thats micrsoft. i have faith in apple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Ingus Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Just its a new os and so could have issue's Well there's that to consider too. We'll be getting a new Mac after 10.5 comes out BUT we'll be waiting around a month to see if there are any issues. I don't think anything could be as bad a vista, and Leopard will probably have a problem or two, I mean even Tiger still has updates from time to time. If Leopard is as good as Tiger is then I'll be estatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osx_guy Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 yeah, so buy one when its out. It cant be that bad. i'll just go with it. If there are issues then they will fix them in good time. and so when this new os is out, i can purchase one with it pre installed on the 26th or around then what ever ?

Colonel Ingus Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I was just reading where some are saying that Leopard is going to get pushed back (again) to a Jan '08 release date God I hope that doesn't happen Supposed to be an announcement forthcoming soon.

apowerr Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 If I had an Intel Mac, Leopard would make me a splode! Intel Mac users will notice a significant speed increase (a new OS that makes things faster? Has that ever happened before? ) when using Leopard. Of course I have a PPC Mac Mini, so I am saving $125.
