People are saying that Apple might announce the development of the next version of Mac OS X on June 9th. It seems they are looking to give developers an early version of Mac OS X 10.6 at the event. Apple is said to be more interested less in new features than and more on improving the overall speed, stability and security of Macs.
The major changes are said to be to eliminate Power PC support, and only leaving intel Macs. This will incentive developers to spend less time on universal Binaries. Its also said that Apple will consider wrapping the entire OS in Cocoa, granting use of the code to access functions which were only opened through Carbon. We think the code name may be “Snow Leopard” but it is not certain for now.
Reports claim a commercial release of the OS to be expected as soon as next year’s Macworld in January.
