Panther is upon us
filed under:
Apple released their new operating system dubbed Panther today. Over 150 new features make it “Like having an all-new Mac.”
“Mac OS X has evolved. The fourth major release in just three years, Panther offers breakthroughs in innovation, ease of use and reliability that won’t be seen in other operating systems for years, if ever.”
I, for one, am excited. I don’t even have a Mac and I’m excited. I’m excited that Apple is finally doing things the way we’ve all wanted them to for years. They always had the money, the technology, the industry links to make a real power play against Windows, but only now have they really stepped up to plate.
This will raise the bar for personal computing across all platforms. The G5 can go head to head in almost any application with almost any PC on the market. The competition is meaningful for the first time in years. I will never turn my back on the PC, but I’m not sure how much longer I can go on without a Mac.
