Our longest running poll on When Will Apple, when will snow leopard be released, has finally come to an end. A few months ago Apple sort of announced a release date, “September”, so we decided to start up a new poll with just that month. So what does Apple do? …they pull a fast one and release it early. So we rounded up all the eligible entries and pick one lucky winner at random.
So Jasonstar7 come on down!

MacBook Touch leaked in shot of website?

From Touch User Guide, a self proclaimed “ultimate guide to the Apple Tablet”, comes this picture of a screen showing the Apple website homepage with the rumored tablet computer. An interesting thing about this image is at the top where it says “iPhone Apps & OS X living in perfect harmony.” Apparently whomever made this mock screen thinks the tablet will behave as an extra large iPhone running OS X. Now, I say this is a mock screen because I don’t think Apple will let something as big as this slip out into the public.
The image has also sparked a debate among ourselves here at When Will Apple? On one hand Justin thinks it’s fake because the word “touch” in the name is capitalized, his logic is that the iPod touch doesn’t have the capital “T”. I’m not so sure about that though, since Apple naming convention for MacBooks do have capitalized letters, MacBook Pro / MacBook Air. But in both cases our guess for the name seems to be on target.
The question is when will it come? Tell us if you know

Thanks to a tip from a reader, it has come to our attention that Mac OS X Snow Leopard has reached Gold Master status and somehow got leaked… According to Mac4Ever (found through Redmond Pie via Mac Rumors) the leaked build is 10A432 which they are saying is the final version. This seems plausible as we are in mid August and the release is scheduled for sometime in September.
Now, we are not sure if the leaked file is the real thing or not… I wouldn’t download it, but if you insist in doing it here is the link our tipster sent us… Do it at your own risk… But come on, don’t be a cheapass Snow Leopard is retailing for $29… Just wait for it…

Looks like Apple’s promise to deliver Snow Leopard in September is on target. Amazon is now listing various versions of Snow Leopard for preorder including family pack and server versions. For $29, it’s definitely worth upgrading! Don’t want to spend the $29 bucks? …then take a guess in our Snow Leopard poll for your chance to win a copy.
Also, if you click our Amazon links and order we get a few bucks, which will help support our giveaways.
