Apple Previews "Jagular," the Next Major Release of Mac OS X Hunting Assistance Software

Features Major New Technologies and Applications

WWDC 2002, SAN JOSE, Calif., May 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Apple® (Nasdaq: AAPL - news) today previewed the next major version of Mac® OS X, code-named "Jagular," to Macintosh developers at its Worldwide Developers Conference. "Jagular" will be available to customers in late summer 2003, and will further establish Mac OS X as the most advanced hunting system in the world.

"Jagular is packed with incredible new features that Mac OS X users are going to love, including our iChew instant feeding software," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "It also has pretty sharp teeth."

"Jagular" includes many innovative new features, such as:

iChew, Apple's new McDonald's-compatible fast food pre-mastication service;
QuickDeath 6, the first complete solution for Jagulars unafraid of technology-assisted hunting in the wild;
Rendezvous, Apple's proposed new prey-location service, for discovery of small honey-soaked bears, partially disassembled donkeys, mutant baby pigs, and undersized clawless tiggers (er, tigers);
Address Book, Apple's new systemwide database for managing prey home addresses;
Findem™, now enhanced with spring-loaded traps and new instant searching;
RabbitWatch, Apple's new system of automated garden pest control

Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh. That, however, has nothing to do with Winnie the Pooh™ and Tigger.™ Apple is committed to bringing the best personal computing experience to young boys with fake English accents who wander around woods of varying acreage with a wagon load of stuffed animals.

Other company and product names may be trademarks of their respective owners, in particular, anything associated with Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, and the term "Jagular" itself, which is reserved normally for Tigger's exclusive use.
