          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 55284
                CC: website@global.libreoffice.org
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: TDF Site [de] (German) DWONLOAD Installation: replace
                    headline "Apple Macintosh" by "Mac OS X"
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
          Reporter: bugs@eikota.de
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.2.1 rc
         Component: WWW
           Product: LibreOffice

On the German page
   http://de.libreoffice.org/download/installation/
the section with hints for Mac OS X users has the headline “Apple Macintosh”.
IMHO this is not a good idea, at least not today. Two reasons:

1) As far as I can remember, Apple does not use the word “Macintosh” often (or
not at all) since a few years -- only “Mac Pro”, “MacBook”, “iMac”, etc.

2) The other headlines on the same page speak of “Windows” and “Linux”, i.e.
mention operating system names. But “Apple Macintosh” was a hardware name. The
operating system was called “System 7”, “MacOS 8”, “MacOS 9”, and now “Mac OS
X”.

Therefore I suggest that the headline should read “Mac OS X” instead, just like
on the other page:
