More Mac OS X Builds, 10.3.9, Tiger.

Appleinsider reports that Apple has seeded another build of Mac OX 10.3.9 build 7W94 which is expected to be released "imminently".

Meanwhile, Apple's work on Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) appears to be continuing with the most recent internal build at 8A432. Build 8A428 was reported to be declared Gold Master (10.4.0).

Despite no official annoucement from Apple on April 1, ThinkSecret maintains that Tiger will be released in April, but with a mid-month announcement and "shipping by the close of the fourth week at the latest".

This was to be expected. It'll probably be announced at NAB and in stores about two weeks later. As far as i know Apple always announces new versions of Mac OS X about two weeks before they actually become available :)

Its ok, it was probably a couple of bugs that they wanted to make sure were right. Thats fine with me.

Odd how they're releasing 10.3.9. Perhaps they just want to make us sweat :p Or they know people wont move to Tiger straight away.

I would rather we wait for a bug free product than wait for the fix to a rushed product.

Apple always continues development of new builds, even after they are declared GM. Any new changes will be rolled into a 10.4.1 release via software update. This is not surprising at all.

Hmmm....seems strange after the almost certainty of the previous build going GM. Maybe it was wrong, always a possibility!!

Apple Insider are reporting that this latest Tiger build is for Mac OS X Tiger Server, and not the client version which they insist has gone GM...hmmm...now its getting confusing!!

April was supposed to bring some clarity to all these Tiger rumors and thoughts, turns out its making them worse!!! lol!! I guess the only time we will know for sure in April will be NAB....ah well...was hoping it would be before then (very hopeful I know!! hehe!)...but wishful thinking!!

If it is the client Tiger I guess it is still good news...fewer bugs n all!! Really hope it is April still though for a release...it seemed certain...but things seem to be slipping, I dunno...cant moan if its not ready! Just my impatience!!
