same with mac everyone in the mac world was on the edge of their seat watching the count down on apple.com for the week b4 leopard came out

just the hype that the companys make get people motivated to go and buy the next OpSys, its human nature... keep up with the jones
I do keep up with the (Joneses) - the Joneses who do the beta testing. As I watched it unfold, sales was slow due to bad PR regarding possible hardware upgrades. PC retailers tried to give options to users who didn't want Vista, but Bill was bull-headed. There are those *few* who do not know, do not care, must have the latest. These are the same people who stood in line for hhhhhrs to get an IPhone. Personally I don't care what they do. As long as they're somewhere standing in line and not being a danger to the road playing with their gadgets, I'm happy.
