I was just reading my daily RSS reader when I came across this; Lee Car over at TUAW spotted something funny on the system requirements for Mobile Me. Apparently, one requirement needed for Mobile Me is Mac OS X 10.5.4!

The reason this is strange is because if you do not pay attention to what version you are running, 10.5.4 isn’t even out yet. The current version for Mac OS X is 10.5.3. So what exactly does this mean? Well my guess is that before or when Mobile Me is released, you will see 10.5.4 released.

There is no schedule release date, but Mobile Me should be scheduled to be released sometime in early July. So you can expect 10.5.4 to be released sometime during July, or even before. Based off of these pictures however I would not put money on it being any later!

Speaking of 10.5.4, Steve Jobs let developers get a little sneak peak at the new version of Mac OS 10. This will be 10.6 called “Snow Leopard”. Steve Jobs did not really talk about it, but you can bet that by the next MacWorld, this will be the main topic of discussion.
