Mac OS 9.2

Thursday July 19, 2001 4:21 am PDT by Arnold Kim

DJ Keegan
writes "I found this on an iMac model page and
thought i'd mention it. If you look at the chart and go to
"iMac (Summer 2001)" you'll see the Original OS says:
9.2:

take look here"

Indeed, it appears 9.2 was originally scheduled for
release with the Summer iMacs. Either Steve forgot to
mention it, or things got delayed. The big question is
when we'll see "Mac OS X" listed as the Original OS. It
was supposed to be MacWorld NY. I can only assume
when 10.1 comes out. Anyone have any info?
