OS X 10.5.7 nearing beta phase; supports new macs, bug fixes

Despite somewhat less hands-on time that we usually like to have in our first sneak-peeks of developmental Apple software -- particularly system updates -- we are taking a look under the hood of Mac OS X 10.5.7 which is fast approaching the 'beta' phase when it will be seeded to third-party developers for testing & feedback. Interestingly, our examinations turned up not just software dirt, but hints of what's to come for the iMac, Mac Pro & even Macbook Air.

Is Apple planning a desktop version of “Macbook Air”? A “Mac Air”?!

As long-time readers of Rumors know, we were among the first to break the initial rumor of a stripped-down, mid-range Macbook designed to target the "ultraportable" market and further raise the bar with stunning industrial design that couldn't have come from anywhere but Cupertino.We have also been among the first to reexamine long-standing rumors of a major overhaul to the Mac Mini.....some have even gone so far as to speculate that the Mini as we know it is coming to the end of its lifespan and will be replaced with something categorically similar -- but with a different name and striking differences. At this time, however, Rumors is confindent that the Mini, more or less as we know it today, will be around for a while yet -- instead of replacing the Mini, we believe we will see an all-new model designed to sit in between the Mini and iMac in the desktop product matrix.
