What are the changes in OSX.5 Leopard.... PING!

If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.

Newbie FUD moment: live partitioning? Legacy Winblows apps and all...

I found a 500MB torrent and downloaded Jobs' WWDC 2007 keynote.

I like the new Finder, cool Dock, Cover Flow might be nice. The easy networking and global integration of all your Macs via your .Mac account looks very good. I like the way Time Machine and Cover Flow and Spotlight work seamlessly across all your Macs on local network and via Internet.

The Quick Look and the way it is integrated is nice too. Stacks looks handy for a convenient quick dump location. Spaces looks very cool, maybe the best virtual desktop implementation I've seen.

Time Machine looks like they finally made backups easy enough for even Grandma. Just plug in a USB 2.0 or Firewire drive, available everywhere, click once or twice, everything backed up on schedule. I also like that you can have one large attacted drive on an Airport or a NAS on the LAN and back up to it and even back up multiple machines to a single drive. Also, the Spotlight searching across the network to your Time Machine drive is handy.

The 64-bit demo with the monster photo processing app compared to the 32-bit version was very impressive.

I wish they would have shown more on CoreAnimation. The demo app they showed with massive amounts of video integrated with Spotlight and displayed in a Cover Flow format was very very compelling.

Anyone with a teenager who lives on MySpace and IM will go insane over iChat Theater. The ability to share videos and slideshows and do keygened backgrounds easily and other video tricks is an ultimate teen chat client.
