PL_ Veteran Posted August 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 12, 2009 This is the build that was released a couple of weeks ago, right? The build number of the Golden Master is reportedly 10A432, compared to the last known developer seed (Build 10A421a) released over two weeks ago.

PyX Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I also had thought that 10A432 was the latest build... strange! Oh well, can't wait to see what's been fixed and everything, but the last build I tried was pretty damn stable! For me, Snow Leopard goes like this : I had about 100 things I didn't like about Leopard. I have about 20 things left in Snow Leopard that I don't like. These are small things of course, but still :) So the update for $10 will be very nice for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyn Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Yeah, I just tried it, but it says 64 bit kernel incompatibility. Maybe your SL isn't running in 64 bit? The release notes for Fusion 2.0.5 mention the following: # Provides experimental support for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server as a guest operating system (32-bit only)# Provides experimental support for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard as a host operating system (32-bit only) Same goes for the private beta version. I do hope Fusion will have some (beta) version that is 64 bit compatible because it will be most likely that Snow Leopard machines will be running in 64 bit mode.

Simon Veteran Posted August 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 12, 2009 Can't wait to get this in my hands! Wish the preorders were available in Canada, though :( Although I've gotta say, there's not the high level of excitement that I had for Leopard. That was a big OS update... this isn't so much. But tSL also only costs $29... I just hope Apple really has something up their sleeve for 10.7. I'll probably get a higher level of excitement when I get the final list of new features on my screen, but right now I'm just not that excited.

Death Proof Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 i guess this year apple is offering us just as much as microsoft offers to its customers ( very little new ) , but at a very attractive price point ( unlike microsoft) - so kudos to apple :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyX Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Does it mean everyone testing Snow Leopard that gave feedback in the last few pages of this thread now have access to the Golden Master of Snow Leopard through Software Update? I'm asking because I'm upgrading my MacBook, so it's being sold and I had to format the whole thing and reinstall a stable version of OS X along with a few apps. So no more Snow Leopard for me.

NeoXY Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Any picture of the latest build? Yep. So did the interface change? I'm almost positive it would be a no, but some confirmation either way would be nice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Neo Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Nice to see we're still stuck with those same Aqua elements for the next 1,5 ~ 2,5 years. I pray to God I can still use my Aqua Extreme scroll and progress bars in Snow Leopard. (N) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Neo Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I don't dislike them, but they need to be modernized a bit. Give them a fresh look. I mean we have been stuck with basically the same damn things for ages now. Since day one I replaced them with Aqua Extreme, which looks much more polished.

richardsim7 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I see Aqua Extreme is a whole theme, if I choose to install it can I just use the scrollbars? I like my Close/Min/Max buttons as they are :) -Rich- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Neo Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 It used to be a whole theme on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and below intended as a fix for everything Apple did "wrong" with Aqua. However on Leopard I only applied the scroll and progress bars. I haven't changed the title bar (Close/Minimize/Zoom) widgets. So the ones you're seeing in the screen shots are the system's defaults.

Xero Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Am I the only one that likes the little aqua bits? :laugh:-Rich- Count me in too. While they might be dated it is nice to see them. They add some flavor to the gui and definitely stand out. Btw, anyone else see one of the Adobe dev blogs. CS5 will drop PPC support, drop Carbon for Cocoa and go 64 bit native. mmm after seeing what Apple did when they did the same things I'm dying to see what CS5 will bring. I'm very anxious for it now. http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2009/08/goodn...suite_risc.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
