"It is understood that Build 8A425 was distributed both internally and to selected key developers last Tuesday, and unless major new issues are discovered it will be the last significant milestone before the product goes gold master ...

    It's a running joke. People on this forum say that whenever something new comes out of Apple. No matter how unrelated it is to PowerBooks.

    Support

    My ppc PB 540 better finally be supported in Tiger or it'll mean that:
    1) Apple is about to go out of business.
    2) Jobs is s******* his market base.
    3) There are no PB G5s coming.

    I hope Tiger will run on my eMate. Newton OS 2 is getting a little long in the tooth.
