Apple seeds new Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and 10.6 Snow Leopard developer builds

Samsung Deals“Apple this weekend followed the release of its latest Snow Leopard beta with new pre-releases of both Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server,” Slash Lane reports for AppleInsider.

“Since opening the Mac OS X 10.5.8 beta test to developers approximately one month ago, Apple has shown signs that the release may cap off development of Mac OS X 10.5,” Lane reports. “For example, each new build has arrived with a focus area noticeably distinct from the last, with lower-level technologies and frameworks seeing greater attention than usual. As such, it’s been speculated that the Mac maker may be giving its Leopard OS a final once-over.”

Lane reports, “Separately, developers this weekend were also treated to a new build of Mac OS X 10.6 Server, labeled build 10A403 [which] arrived on the heels of Mac OS X 10.6 Client build 10A402a earlier in the week. That build introduced some widely-reported interface tweaks to the Dock’s pop-up menus and Expose.”
