Almost a year after our much discussed Mac OS X 10.1 review, it is time to write down our impressions from the new version of OSX, Jaguar 10.2. Is Jaguar worth the full $129 USD? Dive in for more. Update: Slashdot seems to agree with our review, at least on the backwards compatibility issue.

It is too bad that backwards compatibility seems to suffer quite a bit with thise release. That would have been another reason to mark this release as 11.0 (together with the missing upgrade price).
The change from gcc 2.95.x to 3.x is probably the most obvious reason why some applications don't work anymore. The reason why a pure C program doesn't work any longer is probably because they also moved to FreeBSD 4.4. I suspect a few things in some C libraries changed as well.
Here is the chance for yet another thread about version numbers. They don't make much sense nowadays, do they?
