Mac OS X Leopard is postponed to October

20th April 2007

All the fancy of Apple software can take breath, because Mac OS X Leopard will not be released in June of this year. Instead of a new operating system, which perhaps all Mac owners want to see, the company will do its best to release iPhone. Mac OS X Leopard will be released only in October. In the section Hot News on â€œappleâ€ site there is the announcement: â€œiPhone has successfully passed a number of tests required by certification and will be on sale at the end of June at the exactly scheduled date ... However, the completion of the work on iPhone, which is the most perfect software ever released for mobile platform is requiring some degree of price to be paid for â€“ a part of the leading programmers from developing team of Mac OS X is transferred to a new direction, and it means that Apple is not able to release the new system to June Worldwide Developers Conference. Though the work on the new features of â€œLeopardâ€ will be finished at the beginning of the summer, we can not guarantee the truly high quality of the product which the buyers expect of us. At present, we are planning to demonstrate to developers at the conference the final version of â€œLeopardâ€, to present them beta-copy of the system and to release Mac OS X Leopard in Octoberâ€¦ the life is full of compromises, and we are sure that, in this case, we have made the correct choiceâ€, - says Mactime.RU. They say in Apple that the final stage of the developments of new OS will be in June, and the period of testing the components of the system will last for 4 months. Mac-community is indignant, and buyers of iPhone are ready to give their hard-earned for the new gadget. Some analysts are inclined to think that Mac OS X Leopard may be released ahead of schedule because itâ€™s unusual for Apple to detain their products.
