Mac OS X Leopard and then some…

Mac OS X Leopard has officially arrived, and there’s nothing really I want to write about right now. Thousands if not millions of other blogs out on the “inter-web” are talking about it. So that’s it about Mac OS X Leopard……. for now.

Some interesting notes:

  • Many people were using the iPhone $100 Apple Store Credit to purchase Mac OS X Leopard.
  • Many customers actually purchasing the Family Pack (5 user license).
  • Steve Gibson of SpinRite (@GRC.com) and Security Now fame was spotted at Apple Store Fashion Island in Newport Beach, California. Good luck getting that T-Shirt, Mr. Gibson. Actually the funniest thing was that, someone in the line was saying that Gibson’s SpinRite was a piece of useless software that doesn’t do anything.
  • Many customers who pre-ordered Leopard reported that their copies arrived before the 6:00 PM sale time.
  • The first update available for Mac OS X Leopard is Apple Remote Desktop Client 3.2.1; assuming that it’s a clean install.

One more thing:

  • During Mac OS X LEopard installation, the Airport is available and able to connect to Wireless Access Point. Picture will be added later, I have yet to reinstall all the apps on my MacBook Pro.

Upgrading Hard Drive on MacBook Pro

I have a first generation MacBook Pro Core Duo which I ordered the the moment it was made available back in January 2006; i was delivered in March 2006. It comes with 100GB hard-drive, which was considered large at that time. Eighteen months, two hundreds and fourteen apps later, I found out that I need more hard drive space. (OK, it’s not about the number of the apps, but it’s because of all the multimedia projects I have been working on; and Boot Camp partition or VMware/Parallel disk image.)

Anticipating the official release of Leopard, I decided to upgrade the hard drive on this MacBook Pro. It’s not a trivial task but I’ve done a lot of it for the past 18 months or so. The hard drive is being delivered, and Apple has just completed the screen replacement on my MacBook Pro. I need to pick it up soon.

I’ll be replacing the hard drive later today, as soon as UPS delivered the hard drive. Assuming I picked up my MacBook Pro already.

I’ll post some video clips of me upgrading the hard drive. I anticipate spending 30 to 60 minutes to complete the upgrade.

Getting Ready for Mac OS X Leopard

It’s that time of the year Mac OS X upgrade again. It’s been more than two years since Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) was released. Mac OS X Tiger (10.5) is waiting in the wing, ready to pounce.

Incarnations of Leopard Developer Preview have been around for a while, but the “finish” version will finally reach the Mac masses.

I myself am getting ready for the official Mac OS X Leopard. My trusted first generation MacBook Pro Core Duo is in need for a little hardware upgrade. At this moment, it has 2GB of RAM and 100GB of Hard Drive. It is currently having its screen replaced at the Apple Store. I have ordered a new hard drive replacement, double the capacity of the current hard drive. I know that I’ll be needing all the storage space once Leopard arrives, but not for the sake of installing Leopard per se. I might need to have a Boot Camp partition, and more drive space for all the apps I’ll be using.

I ordered HITACHI Travelstar 7K200 HTS722020K9SA00

  • 200GB
  • 7200 RPM
  • 16MB Buffer
  • Serial ATA150

As soon as I get my MacBook Pro back from The Apple Store, I’ll be performing the upgrade myself. I’ve done a lot of MacBook Pro upgrade, and this would take me roughly 1 hour or less.

Can’t wait for the hard drive and Leopard. Now I’m waiting for: a call from The Apple Store for my MacBook, UPS to deliver the hard drive, and Friday October 26th for Leopard.

Apple Announces SDK for iPhone and iPod touch

Apple announces that iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK) will be made available sometimes in February 2008. It is not clear if the SDK will be Mac OS X only or will be available for Windows OS also.

From Apple Hot News:

Third Party Applications on the iPhone
Let me just say it: We want native third party applications on the iPhone, and we plan to have an SDK in developers’ hands in February. …….

It will take until February to release an SDK because we’re trying to do two diametrically opposed things at once—provide an advanced and open platform to developers while at the same time protect iPhone users from viruses, malware, privacy attacks, etc. …….

……. We are working on an advanced system which will offer developers broad access to natively program the iPhone’s amazing software platform while at the same time protecting users from malicious programs.

We think a few months of patience now will be rewarded by many years of great third party applications running on safe and reliable iPhones.

Steve

P.S.: The SDK will also allow developers to create applications for iPod touch. [Oct 17, 2007]

Back in July 2002, on TWiT 103 Leo Laporte mentioned a rumor he heard about the iPhone SDK. According to Laporte, he heard that Apple already had a “mature” iPhone SDK on Mac OS X, and Apple was still working on the SDK on Windows OS. It was immediately called “bogus”. Apparently Laporte received this info on his “The Tech Guy Radio Show” chat room from an anonymous person. Unfortunately, Laporte no longer posts any of the chat transcript to quote the info verbatim. In effect, the anonymous person told Laporte that Apple had a working iPhone SDK on Mac OS X and might be working on the Windows OS version. Despite of all conflicting news, the information is somewhat accurate.

The iPhone and iPod touch OS is based on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Most likely that the SDK will require Leopard, and there will be no Windows OS version. This means if you want to develop apps for the iPhone and iPod touch, you need to use Mac OS X Leopard.
