The long national nightmare is nearly over

The long national nightmare is nearly over—my copy of Jaguar is apparently en route, on a truck right now, finding its way to my house.

I had pre-ordered it from outpost.com because they were selling it for $30 less than everybody else. They said it would ship the 24th.

On a whim I just checked my order status and found that it’s out for delivery right now. Cool.

During pretty much the entire development of NetNewsWire I’ve been getting Jaguar-specific bug reports—but I, seemingly alone in the Mac geek universe, didn’t have a copy of Jaguar.

The main reason I’m looking forward to it is by all accounts it’s faster. Speed is good. It could be exactly the same as 10.1 but be faster and I would be satisfied.
