Leaked Snow Leopard image potentially indicates a 32 / 64-bit divide

2008-12-28 20:14:00| Engadget

Apple's said it's taking a break from adding flashy features to OS X to focus on the foundations and stability of the system with Snow Leopard, and this latest leaked screenshot might indicate that those foundations are moving to 64 bits -- it shows System Preferences saying it needs to restart in 32-bit mode to open the Network panel. That's certainly interesting, given the rumors that Apple's dropping support for non-Intel machines and maybe even 32-bit Intel processors with this release, but it could also just mean that whoever took this screenshot doesn't have a 64-bit-friendly version of that preference pane installed. (We're guessing the latter, since there are a lot of 32-bit only Core Duo Intel Macs out there.) Restarting apps to change modes seems pretty clunky, though -- shades of System 7 and the 32-bit Enabler, for the olds -- so we're hoping Apple's got a more elegant solution in the works. Macworld's just around the corner, we're sure we'll hear more from Steve Phil soon.Filed under: Desktops, LaptopsLeaked Snow Leopard image potentially indicates a 32 / 64-bit divide originally appeared on Engadget on Sun, 28 Dec 2008 14:14:00 EST.

More Shots of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Leak (Some German Required) [Apple]

2008-12-28 00:30:00| Gizmodo

German mag Sevenmac Magazin got themselves a bunch of shots of Apple's new OS X update, Snow Leopard, and it looks to be the real deal. We know that Snow Leopard isn't going to be any kind of massive overhaul, but more of a refinement of the existing OS. It's aiming for stability, speed, and power management. So these photos don't really say a whole lot besides proving, over and over on different screens, that this is indeed version 10.6. Maybe if I spoke German it'd have some hidden meaning, but as it stands, this should be what it looks like when you choose to Softwareaktualisierung, or whatever. Sevenmac has a bunch of other pictures over here.[Sevenmac]
