"Pinot"=OS update for ?
I've read some things on <a href="http://www.geek.com" target="_blank">www.geek.com</a> and they say that MWSF 2003 is the target for the next OS X update= code-named "Pinot". That update should implement support for next gen processors from IBM.
Also read that IBM would or wanted to reach 2 Ghz with their PPC's in late 2002. This could be the 64-bit processor, they will show 15th Oct.

<strong>Mathew Rothenberg of eWeek also says Pinot will be ready for MWSF, and that it will limit OS 9 to Classic.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Pinot... Wanna bet that name gets changed? <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

That or the next retail box will have red wine superimposed over the 'X' instead of the fur pattern.

I could see it getting called "peanut" or "pinto."
This will usually require a lot of work wthout features and/or present changes. So it could still be 10.2.1 and deemed a completely new code name, simply as a easy marker to use inhouse.
So Pinot can come out Oct15 if for some bizare reason apple had everything ready.

Not to be a wet blanket, but major OS versions aren't going to come out in that timeframe -- it just isn't enough time.
As for IBM, it's great to show the initial processors at 2ghz -- don't know if they'll hit that mark, but regardless, it is a different thing to be able to ship them in quantity, and a different thing again to have an entire motherboard designed around 'em.
Don't get too overly optimistic with the dates here...

It is pronounced "pee-no" -- as in the grape. Think French.

I tell you, some dumb ass' (Sorry couldnt help myself <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> ) will call it PIN-OT
Windows users will call it pie-not
American Wine Fans will call it pie-no
Europeans (It's from France. You probably don't even know where France is!)* and Australians will call it pin-o
The Mac OS 10.2.1 should be out sometime in the next week or so probably, considering all the (apparent) bug fixes in 6C116. Also, remember the last 10.1.5 security update? Well, 10.2 doesn't include it. Considering Jaguar has been out for a couple of days, software update should light up soon.
Fran, according to <a href="http://www.macworldexpo.com" target="_blank">http://www.macworldexpo.com</a> MacWorld is still held in NYC.
Macworld Conference & Expo
Jacob K. Javits Convention Center

Right now, New York is just the fall back plan if things for some reason don't work out with Boston.

I don't doubt that at all. My point was that MWSF would not bring us a new full OS update, but perhaps a small one such as a 10.2.1 or 10.2.2 update.

I thought the new convention center wasn't even finished yet and wouldn't be until 2004??
You are correct, but if IDG signs with Boston, one of the agreements is that next year's Expo will be at the Hynes Convention Center.
Developers will call it pin-out
Windows users will call it pie-not
American Wine Fans will call it pie-no

Probably.
So what's the significance of the name? "Cheetah" (not) and "Jaguar" seem to indicate a feline fetish within Apple, and possibly with speed.
Pinot?
Will we see a digitally manipulated Orson Wells hawking this: "We will sell no Operating System, before it's (its?) time." Maybe this signifies the end of the OS X Beta phase.
Maybe it will be released in Paris, 2003. I think MWSF is too aggressive for the timing, unless it's more of a minor update.
True, but we are not talking about MOT here. IBM has very advanced foundries and capabilities. It is quite possible that Apple will dump MOT and go with Big Blue. Personally, I hope they do. It amazes me that Apple has let this BS with MOT go on as long as it has. I don't want to start another "MOT sucks thread", but in all reality, Apple should never have let this go on as long as it has. The only explanation is the one Jobs offered (implicitly): Apple has to wait out the switch to OSX before it can change processors. Looking back, I'm sure they knew this when MOT hit the wall in 2000.

its = possesive (his, hers)
it's = contraction of "it is"
Isn't english a great language?
