Mac Guru is it ok to ask for guesses on ETA of Tiger? (this is not a technical support questions and not a "where do I find Tiger" question) What do you say Mac Guru?

Any guesses????

ok- I make the first guess - a hedge guess January 2005 - April 2005
OR no hedge - MWSF....

My reasoning in this fast turn around world of technology, once you mention a new product, you get it to market within a year.

Sooner rather than later I think, I'm running it and it seems much more polished that the WWDC Panther was, a few bugs but very advanced.

I only hope there are more feature yet to be added.

If you want Tigger, then buy a new mac - it'll be released a month after.

I want it when its ready. No need to rush anything.. and as this is is the last update for a while (now apple are slowing releases), i would like them to take their time and add as much, and perfect it as much as possible..
I free'd my mind... now it won't come back.

June 26th 2005, my 21st Birthday... Apple has decided they're sorry about all the problems with my iBook's logic board, so they're going to publicly apologize on the WWDC...

Eiither that or WWDC 2005. My guess is this WWDC was a preview of mainly SDK stuff, they wanted to show off ten features, but they're going to have a lot of little things in Tiger to make it more worth the price tag that they're not even done on. I doubt it's even feature locked yet.

I would think it'd be before WWDC 2005. That way, they can say, "Gee, we've shipped 12,000,000,000,000 copies already, wouldn't you just love it if *your* app worked on Tiger?"
