Apple To Release Leopard

Apple Inc. confirmed today what rumor sites have been speculating on for days: that its Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" OS will hit store shelves in the USA on Oct. 26. The Leopard Server operating system will also be released at the same time.

Ken Mingis of Computer World reports that Apple announced the release date -- which had been delayed since last April, when the company shifted development work to its iPhone -- this morning.

The operating system, the first from Apple since it released Mac OS X 10.4 in late April 2005, will run on all Intel-based Apple computers and laptops, as well as as PowerPC G5 machines. It will also run on PowerPC G4 hardware as long as the processors run at 867 HMz or faster. Max O X 10.5 requires a DVD drive for installation and 512MB of RAM, according to Apple officials.
