Is this a question? Or a statement? Or something else?

yes it can, but at about 2fps, so its unusable.

The X in OSX is 10 already, by the way :p

That's the first time I've seen performance of an operating system measured in frames per second :)

OS8, 9, X? that's not a roman numeral, that's steve hand jobs being bent!

OS X (snow) is refered to as OS X v10.6.xx

So OS 10 10.6.xx???
I think not!

The X denotes the change to a UNIX file system.

Though if you type 'say OS X' into terminal, it does say OS 10, but I maintain that is just steve the bender, and apple's strange draconian style.

Hasn't MacOS always been Unix-based?
But just take it.. the X stands for 10 :D

Nope before 'X' it was MFS and HFS.

It hasn't been always unix until it was X. You are right, X stands for 10, so the correct way to read is mac os ten.

So why then, on the packaging, after the X is 10.6.xx

Is it "OS ten ten point six point ....." NO!

I swear apple need to just go die quietly in the corner! Not only can they not even get a working aerial without stealing patents, it's pretty obvious they can't count either!

Prior to Mac OS X, MacOS was a set of self-actualizing APIs, not so much an operating system. It certainly wasn't based on *nix.

NeXTSTEP was Unix-based. Mac OS X is an evolution of NeXTSTEP.

Are you referring to the AppleDouble files on the N900?

Thanks for clarifying about MacOS / Unix ;)
