Yesterday a rumour was spreading on news sites, weblogs and message boards that Apple's Mac OS X for Intel x86 processors had leaked on the internet. A leak release by xISO was said to be spreading through various torrents, p2p networks and other sources.
Well there was indeed something circulating on the internet that claimed to be Mac OS X 10.4.1 Tiger for Intel hardware but it wasn't really an OS. Reports were coming in from users who had downloaded it and all they got was a huge 1GB file full of crap.
A user who posted a comment where we reported the news yesterday, claims he was simply horrified by what he saw when he loaded up the file in VMware, a program that allows one PC to run multiple operating systems simultaneously. He didn't see a shiny Mac OS X, but he did saw the notorious Goatse.cx picture. If you don't know it, well don't start looking for it because it's a simply disgusting photograph (it's a naked man who stretches his ass..)
It seems like some people had lots of fun yesterday by creating this fake release to see how hysterical all people would react.
Apple's Mac OS X Tiger for Intel hasn't leaked
