Apple released Tiger - the latest and major release of its operating system
Mac OS X version 10.4. "Features like Spotlight and Dashboard will change
the way people use their computers," said Philip Schiller, Senior VP of
World-wide Product Marketing, Apple.
Tiger delivers more than 200 new features and inno-vations including
Spotlight, a desktop search technology that lets users instantly find anything
stored on their Mac, including documents, emails, contacts and images.
Dash-board is a new way to ins-tantly access important information like weather
forecasts and stock quotes, using a new class of applica-tions called
widgets.
Apple will also release Mac OS X Server version 10.4 'Tiger' at the same
time. Based on the same core technology as the desktop operating system, Tiger
Server integrates over 100 leading open source projects and standards-based
applica-tions with easy-to-use mana-gement tools that make it easy to deploy for
Mac, Windows and Linux clients.
All 105 Apple retail stores will host 'Tiger World Premiere' events,
offering workshops and hands-on demonstrations of Tiger's features, plus
giveaways at every store including a chance to win a PowerBook G4, iPod and
more.
