Night of Panther!

By Timothy R Butler | Posted at 12:13 AM

Well, tonight's the night. Just hours ago, Mac OS X Panther premiered. It should be really quite nice, especially with the built in X11 Server based on XFree86 4.3. It also includes Safari 1.0 (based on KDE's KHTML) and a lot of other goodies. I'm told by Apple that my copy should be in the mail — now I just have to wait for it. sigh

Anyone else reading this planning to give Panther a spin, or perhaps you already have it? I'd love to hear your experience with it.

RE: Night of Panther!

As soon as I have enough cash in the tech fund, I’ll be upgrading. Hopefully, that will be this weekend if I haven’t overextended myself and get all the little jobs done I’ve promised.

RE: Night of Panther!

I’m not quite sure yet whether or not I’ll be upgrading. The promise of better speed does sound enticing though.

I thought it was supposed to be Safari v1.1 that would be included in this? Why go for mail order rather than pickup a copy somewhere?
