supposed screenshots and features update, but total and utter speculation, could be a fraud, who the hell knows.

EDIT after some reading and browsing, this looks like complete and utter horsepucky. take it with a grain of salt.

The only thing out of that whole bunch at seems 'real' is the Pipeline application. Everything can be easily changed, edited or modified to look easily like they do (About windows are easily edited, as is the About This Mac NIB file).

Shame on those believing. <_< Hehe.

Duckie, maaaaan, I was in the process of ripping all the images I could from Apple.com and u beat me to it.

Nice job buddy.

Looks like Tiger will host some great new features, but will it be worth the price tag? 10.2 to 10.3 was a huge update, I hope 10.3 to 10.4 will be too.
