Something I ran into a while back was this video of Steve Jobs doing a
video demo of NeXTStep on a NeXT workstation back in '91, or '92.
Looking at this video just shows you how ahead of its time the
NeXTStep OS was and how we as Mac users and Developers benefit from
this fantastic work.
It's so true. The fact that Apple can now afford to take the time out
to work on OS level features for developers again in Snow Leopard just
shows how far ahead they think they still are.

There is very little out on the tubes about what will be in Snow
Leopard. From the scant information on Apple's website it appears to
be a release focused purely on low level tech. No user oriented
features. Is Snow Leopard going to be a free upgrade?

No way of knowing at this point. We'll only know when Apple puts out the official word, which I wouldn't expect until January Mac World or WWDC 2009.

I reckon it'll be the big thing at wwdc 09.. not as in the one more thing necessarily, but as in developers will prob get free copies.
As far as snow leopard going to be a free upgrade.. I doubt it. There's a lot of cool tech in there that will make it more than a simple service pack.. but there's no official word on if it's 10.6 or not?
