Nice that the RAM is expandable to 4 GB. It wasn’t so long ago that that was the size of the hard drive....

I think we all expected the expanded RAM and LED backlighting. But a lot of media professionals are going to be very happy at the high-res option on the 17" models. About time.

Did you notice that OpenOffice for the Mac appeared today (alpha release)?

Slashdot | OpenOffice.org for Mac OS X Alpha Released!

And we have the KDE upcoming release (all the major KDE apps running on Linux will also run on Mac and Windows). And Leopard to follow. It's a great year for Mac.
