Mister Jobs just announced at Macworld NY that Mac OS X 10.2 - "Jaguar" is official, and will be released to the public August 24.

My problem: It will cost $129.

New GeForce or Radeon video card to take advantage of Jaguar's high-speed graphics rendering will cost $130 - $150... less if I let the eBay mistress [livejournal.com profile] raininva find me a good deal.

I'm not even going to talk about the cost of the announced 1 GHz processor upgrade which would more than double the speed of my current machine.

Understand, I'm not whining - these are all "wish list" items, and I'll manage fine with what I have until I can get them. But I do sometimes wish I indulged in a less expensive hobby. Assuming there are any.

Addendum (12:25pm) Looks like current 10.1.5 users might be able to upgrade to Jaguar for about $19.95. That improves my mood some. :)
