Quote:
AppleScoop has learned exclusively that the name for Apple’s next generation operating system – Mac OS X 10.9 – will be called LYNX.
This report comes from a reliable source who claims to have talked to someone from inside the walls of Apple. This source claimed that he saw some internal papers that seem to be finalizing the name of the operating system, although the same source couldn’t say when Apple would be finalizing its name and announcing it to the public. We here at AppleScoop think it’ll be during the 2013 annual WWDC.

According to mathematics it taxes the wallet infinitely more than £0 does ;)

If it gets announced in WWDC 2013 that means it'll be mid 2014 before it gets released which puts it on the same 2 years time scale.

Was Mountain Lion announced at WWDC 2011? I thought it just sort of popped out on the dev site...

I can't remember now :?

Does this mean it'll primarily be advertised at gullible 13 year old boys?

IIRC it was announced then but certain sympathetic journalists were given a preview a couple of months before.

Mountain Lion was announced in February 2012, and released in the summer. That means a 12 month delay between OSX releases.

Ah, my mistake. Thought they did the "sneak preview" at WWDC 2011. Forgot they had a special announcement preview in Feb.

The only advantage now is that you might be able to google details quicker. Whatever you think it will not be until they announce it will we know what is included. Even its name is up for grabs until the official announcement.
