Tiger Still on 8A series
I've expressed before an interest in Apple build number conventions.
The latest Mac OS X 1.4 "Tiger" build number is apparently 8A425.
What is unusual is that they are still on the "A" series unlike previous releases:
- 10.0.0 was 4K78
- 10.1.0 was 5G64
- 10.2.0 was 6C115
- 10.3.0 was 7B85
Interestingly, the middle letter has consistently been lower each major release.
I'd still love to know what triggers a change in the middle letter (and why that trigger never happened in Tiger).
