Usually by now we have heard at least the name of the next OS release be it a woman, reference to speed, or a cat. But since the crack down on rumors I haven't read much of anything on the subject. Anyone heard anything?

    That is pronounced pin-wa, correct? Or maybe pin-oy?

    It is pronounced

    pee no

    there is pinot noir, a red wine, and pinot grigio, a white wine. I'm not a wine snob or anything (I think most of it tastes like crap) I just work in a restaurant.

    Heh... I wonder if they'll end up calling the standard version 'Grigio' and the server 'Noir'.

    If you think that's bad, I hear that 10.4 will be named <a href="http://www.wines.com/gewurt.html"; target="_blank">Gewurztraminer</a>!







    [note: there's no umlaut over the u because I'm on a Windows box.]

    OS X 10.3 will be cheeky, yet precocious, with hints of chocolate and oak and an earthy finish.

    I thought it was named that because it would finally satisfy the whiners.

    Thanks!



    Just as long as they don't have something called " Ripple " or " Night Train " ( or Mad Dog ). <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />

    Californians don't know the first thing about pinot noir, those chardonnay-loving wusses....

    Contrast that with this little piece of history:



    "It's not like wine; it doesn't age very well."
