As a proud MacPro owner I have to chime in on the Leopard delay. Everyone has been waiting for Adobe CS3. I know scores of people waiting to buy MacPro’s when CS3 releases this month. Adobe Creative Suite 3 is the killer application suite for the mac community. Fully taking advantage of the Intel chips this will drive a whole lot of mac computer sales-alot more than you think. Leopard will be great, Leopard will be awesome but we can wait for it

Would you rather have Leopard early and buggy or sit there with your 8 core MacPro running Photoshop thru Rosetta? Let’s also not forget the development that is continuing in virtualization with Parallels and VMware Fusion. Have you run Vista on a MacPro with parallels? it’s amazingly fast and responsive. The only feature missing is Aero which is promised by the end of the year

I’m going to Apple a pass on this one

Leopard Delayed Until October:

From an AP feed issued seven minutes after the close of the stock market, Apple has said it will delay Leopard until October. Apple stated that the iPhone project drew resources away from Leopard, slowing the operating system’s development. “We think it will be worth the wait,” Apple said.

There is no press release available at Apple’s site at this time, but there is a static version listed in Apple’s Hot News.

A million Mac geeks subsequently cried into their blogs. Some took a positive tack and wrote about how the delay would be worth it, but even they were reportedly biting their pillows as they wrote.
