Apple is almost ready to release OSX Yosemite

While Microsoft was busy taking the wraps off Windows 10, the next major version of its operating system, Apple released a final candidate for its next desktop OS update. Apple’s given developers the first “golden master candidate” for OS X Yosemite, a sign the company is close to wrapping up development before making it available to the public.

Apple’s OS X Yosemite operating system is arriving soon, and the fact that the developer preview just reached Golden Master status, alongside a 4th public beta preview update, means we probably don’t have long to wait. Last year, Apple released its Mavericks GM build about three weeks before it released the update to the Mac App Store for everyone to download, so Yosemite is on track for the mid-to-late October launch window many are predicting.
