John Siracusa of Ars Technica has done an extensive analysis of the new vers of OSX, Tiger. I haven't read it all yet, but it looks good.
It's tempting to say that Tiger marks childhood's end for Mac OS X, but I think that goes too far. A more accurate analogy is that Mac OS X versions 10.0 through 10.3 represent "the fourth trimester" for Apple's new baby—a phrase used to describe the first three months of human life, during which the baby becomes accustomed to life outside the womb. As any new parent knows ( yes , I am one of them), this is not an easy time of life, for the baby or for the parents.Posted by jackhodgson at April 29, 2005 02:55 PMIt's been a rough journey, but we've made it through intact: Apple, Mac OS X, and Mac users everywhere. Tiger has arrived. Let's see what this baby can do.
