Source : Arstechnica It is now the turn of Arstechnica to announce that they have obtained information on Mac OS X 10.6. Its code name will be Snow Leopard and its release is scheduled for January 2009. As its name is close to the current version we can guess that it will not introduce any major changes compared to the current version. This new variation would rather be directed towards an increase in the performances and stability, the goal being to easily be able to run it on other devices than our current computers. (Already the system that runs the iPhone is a derivative of Leopard). Apple will take advantage of this version to remove the last traces of Carbon and to keep only Cocoa. Ars also confirms that this system will not be compatible with Mac Power PC, and thus it will mark the end of the transition of Apple towards the X86. Of course, these are just rumours, but some, such as Adobe which did not want to make radical changes in the CS4 envisaged for release this autumn must be very ill at ease with the idea of these changes.
