DV Info Net - Jeff: Got a guesstimate for the next system release?

Ahhh, that's where I've been getting confused.

It's not just Microsodt that uses integers for major releases, many/most other companies do as well.

In fact, Apple seems to buck the trend in this regard. Which is no surprise, considering their smoke and mirrors approach to marketing. Forgive my cynicism, but I got OS X.1 not long before they released OS X.2/Jaguar.

I may get Panther if it runs on my lowly G4-450, since Safari won't run on anything less than OS X.2.

For example - there have been 6 (soon to be 7) .upgrades to 10.2 but only 4 service pack releases for Windows 2000. Apple is just faster in development.

There are many interpretations of that observation! ;-)
