Apple Leaks Hint at macOS Big Bear Launching at Next Week’s WWDC
It appears Apple may have leaked its next naming scheme for macOS ahead of its annual developer conference, set for next week.

Desperation may be settling in there. Now granted, the clerks don’t have that haggard “Oh god, I’m on commission’ look of their former Future Shop employees, but I was into the Best Buy attached to the Eaton Centre in Toronto at 11am today and stacks upon stacks of unsold ‘on sale’ products, but you could’a fired off a cannon and not hit a customer.

I don’t know, but can only assume that selling less is never a good thing.

Possibly, these price increases will be mitigated with a lack of sales and discounts. Time will tell.
