Is it supposed to run on iPhones? Because I'm wondering why you posted
that in this newsgroup if it's not.

In many ways it was already under development before 10.6.

I think you meant: It takes years for Apple to develop an operating system,
but only months for Microsoft to steal the ideas and badly create a clone.
(Just like all the Asian iPhone clones really.)

tell you we don't get anything done in a few months.
