@waterboy1628 I've heard both "10" and "Ex" used, so it confuses the hell out of me. I try to refer to Mac OS's by their animal name (such as Snow Leopard), much easier and less confusing but most regular users don't know the system by those names.
@waterboy1628 Yes but they didn't call the others OS VII, OS VIII etc did they? It's absurdly pedantic to rule that people can't say "OS X" when that's what the company have called their operating system.
you do realize that X is the roman numeral for ten right ? and actually it is pronounced "mac os x" i have been using a mac ever since mac os went from 9 to 10 and in the last years i have never heard it called that
Mac's will always be a mystery to me. It's funny how simple the UI is that it actually makes it difficult for somebody like me, who grew up on PC and their difficult manners.
why is video inverted?

@waterboy1628 It's written as OS X not OS 10.

@feckingbillgates obviously. my statement was about the pronunciation. :-)

@waterboy1628 If Apple really didn't want it to be pronounced "OS X" they would have named it "OS 10". I still don't get your point, really.

@feckingbillgates No, they wouldn't have. It's a Roman Numeral....
