Hitchhiker's Guide and Tiger being released on the same day
Kevin, aka obiwan, thinks it may be more than a coincidence that Apple's Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger is being released the same day that Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy opens "wide" at a theater near you.
Douglas Adams (RIP: 2001) was a very vocal Mac advocate, so it would be a fitting tribute to have the dates of these two events coincide, but I don't honestly believe there's anything more to it than karmic timing.
What do you think? Will the first 42 people to show up at 10.4 launch parties across the galaxy receive Tiger logo-emblazoned towels? Will there be a new ad campaign touting Tiger as the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything? Is Tiger really going to be the best bang since the Big one?
Go ahead.. give it some Deep Thought and get back to me.
