Come on Apple get it shipped.

I can't wait for the new features, seems to me to be integrating all the lessons Apple have taught on the iPad and iPhone.

Is anyone using it yet?

I tried install a leaked beta but it involved a lot of messing around with disk partitioning and everything else. So scrapped it off.

But I can't wait to have a look

The file versions is interesting. Always missed that on Unix from the VMS days which begs the question how are they doing it?

If it is a cludge then never mind, but if thet have got the underlying *nix OS to do proper file verisons I want it on real Unix and soon

Anyone fancy taling a look when they install it as it probably won't surprise you to know that I have no need for a Mac.

Actually to be fair for the Mac platform it makes perfect sense to do it the way they have done it. It is the one major feature from good old VMS I miss on Unix though hence why I was hopeful
