People who have read my Blog before, know that I have a very nice Apple Macintosh Powerbook G4 from my work. I had a choice between a regular laptop or the slick and sleek G4 – running OSX which is basically a Unix flavor OS. Well, for a technology freek like me that was a clear cut choice. I got the Mac.
I have been a real fan of OSX from day 1. It is by far the best OS in terms of stability for a laptop I have seen so far. I have run many different OS systems from DOS, WIN 3.1 up to XP Professional. I also like to experiment with Linux, which I think is growing into a great alternative OS for Intel based PC’s.
Well, Apple is steadily making OSX into a prime OS for their PC’s. So off course I’m very keen to get my hands on the new version of OSX: Panther. And ‘ve got it! As I type my G4 is running in the installer in the background and I can’t wait to start testing it. It’s not the official release yet, but it is Build 85 and supposedly it’s one of the final release candidates.
I’ll keep you posted on my experiences!
