Apple has announced the release of its next operating system upgrade, called “Snow Leopard” (a.k.a. Mac OS X 10.6). This OS will work only on Intel-based Macs, but as a result of stripping out PowerPC support, it’s much more compact, and it’s supposed to run faster and more smoothly than Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5).
Customers can pre-order now for delivery on Friday, or visit an Apple retail store or Apple Authorized Reseller on Friday. As soon as we get a chance to test-drive Snow Leopard, we’ll post a review here.
