Mac OS 8.6

is out and on Apple's servers right here. Steve did not mention a CD being available. The key feature touted was longer Powerbook battery life, 25-37 per cent depending on what one is doing--I got nearly 25 per cent on my PB 2400c with full performance and nearly 40 percent on my 3400/180 with full conservation. Sonata, the next and final edition of Mac OS 8, was demoed and is due out this Fall. It has some really neat features and I'll post some details later.
