I can't find the page on apple's website anymore, but there was at one point a little quote that said that the english version would come out on the twenty-sixth and that other languages would follow with in 1-2 months. I can't remember if thery listed swedish as a version to be made, but if there os a swedish version of OS9 that iwould think most likley there will be a OSX version in swedish. Good Luck

Talking All-in one

The version of OS X that is to be released on March 24 includes multiple language support. While I don't know if sweedish is one of them, I do know that there is a long list that you can choose from and switch between at will. There is no need to release aditional versions for different languages. They ae already built in!

I've heard tell that linux/unix, which OS X is based on, has had that inherent language support for some time. However, I have not had a chance to verify that. Having all the languages available in one release of an OS is a new concept for the Windows/Mac OS market.

Thumbs down

The german apple-website says, there will be a swedish version of macos X, but it will be out just a little bit after the normal version which contains an english, german, french, italien and some other language-versions. Sorry, but youŽll have to wait a little longer...

Also the Swedish Applestore says:


Note: The Swedish version of Mac OS X will be available at a future date.


on the pre-order site.

March 24 Apple will introduce English, German, French, Spanish and Japanese versions of MacOS X... all other languages will follow afterwards.

What they don't state is if the version you buy in US, Germany or Spain will contain only their home language or all of them. Unix can support mulitple languages and switch from one to another on the fly.

This is going to be great ))
