Apple conceded that it will be unable to release its next generation operating system in June as previously planned and now says it anticipates launching the software in October. In a statement released after the close of the stock market, Apple said its highly anticipated iPhone has already passed several of its required certification tests and is on schedule to ship in late June as planned. "We can't wait until customers get their hands (and fingers) on it and experience what a revolutionary and magical product it is," Apple said. "However, iPhone contains the most sophisticated software ever shipped on a mobile device, and finishing it on time has not come without a price - we had to borrow some key software engineering and QA resources from our Mac OS X team, and as a result we will not be able to release Leopard at our WWDC in early June as planned." Update: New Leopard screenshots.

I am sorry to tell you that this actually happened to me, albeit on an old rev.b iMac G3 233 MHz with Mac OS X 10.3.9, 256 MB RAM and iTunes 7.02 ...
It wouldn't load unless I stripped off the Intel bits (after which it has just kept running though the library keeps growing + the RAM usage went down dramatically even on my PB G4 1.5 GHz with 1.25 GB RAM ...
I know it's not supposed to make a difference, but in my case it did, and quite dramatically I might say!
