Apple is once again garnering massive quantities of NAND flash for an upcoming product ramp. Mac OS X 10.4.7 inches further towards a release. And Microsoft says all those reports last week about it developing an "iPod killer" are a big misunderstanding.

Development of Mac OS X 10.4.7, a hefty update to Apple's Mac OS X "Tiger" operating, is believed to be winding the final stretch. After reportedly seeding Mac OS X 10.4.7 build 8J119 (PowerPC) and Mac OS X 10.4.7 build 8J2119 (Intel) early last week, Apple followed up with builds 8J122 and 8J2122 just prior to the weekend.  |
