Apple Previews Snow Leopard
Now it’s official, the next major release will be called Snow Leopard. Is Apple running out of cat name or something ? I remember there’s a pool on ZDNet and there’ve been suggestions there, say “Mac OS X lolcat”, lol.
Apple quietly uploaded this new page on their website:

I’ve seen no other details about the next release. However judging from the web page Snow Leopard will become a 64bit operating system and enhance the multicore support, indicating Apple is bringing a closure to the Apple-Intel transition and abandoning old PowerPC models further more. OpenCL is also a brilliant idea but it seems the ATI chips shipped with most MacBook, MacBook Pro and iMacs are far less powerful than those in their PC counterparts.
