I'm not looking for respect - just accuracy.
OSX is not a seven year old OS any more than Windows is a 12-year-old OS. When Apple got to ten, they changed the naming convention. 'Ten' is now a brand name, not a version number. We are actually on version 4 of 'Oh-Es-Ten', with version five soon to be released.
Each new release of the OS comes on average 12-24 months after the preceeding one, and that strategy, of producing more frequent, but less radical revisions, is one some have suggested MS should be adopting with Windows in the wake of the Vista debacle.
