Where’s Tiger?
This post was published 4 years 9 months 8 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.After a few minutes skimming the news for today, I noticed more rumors that the x86 Tiger development build {Tiger for PC’s) from WWDC may or may not be out in the p2p world. I’ve spent the last few hours trying to track down a copy to no avail. Are the rumors true? Is there any validity to any of these speculations? I believe Macdailynews broke the news first on Friday. It was only matter of time right?
I’ve searched every bittorrent tracker known to man and found zilch. I’m assuming no one will be hosting the torrent file in this lifetime. That is if it even does exist. The best places to search would most likely be Usenet or IRC.
Tracking down a copy may be like chasing a unicorn. Who wants to join in the hunt? For the pure thrill that is. No one in their right mind would try downloading a copy right?
Humm dee dum dee dum: Probably worthless

Update: I’ve found the torrent here. Comments left for the torrent claim that the installation works. Supposed picture of a peecee running OSX Tiger here. And just like that the torrent is gone. But wait… [!]
I recall reading that even when OSX comes out for Intel chips that it will only work with Apple hardware. It wouldn’t be too smart on their part if they made it compatible with all hardware. Having to write drivers for all those manufacturers… would probably result in a not-so-rock-solid OS. That’s why OSX is so great to begin with… it just works (because the hardware config stays relatively the same)

And just like that the torrent on piratebay.org is gone. I’m sure Apple had something to do with it. For a minute there I almost convinced myself to download it. Then I realized that it would be pointless considering most of the applications I rely on would not run on the developer build.
yea, exactly. I thought piratebay.org didn’t care about threats being overseas and all? They’ve been threatened before by Apple and did not remove their torrents. They have other OSX torrents still up.
Mininova has the same torrent. Link above.
It’s not a Sony… it’s a fake.
That’s what I’ve read. The torrent is just a file dump of useless text.
