Leopard Colony
Today's the day. Mac OS X, version 10.5, codenamed
Leopard makes its debut. It's a little late, as we
were all expecting it in the spring, but hey, at
least we weren't
waiting five years.
According
to Apple, there are 300+ new feature in the OS. I'm
not going to go into them here, as gigs of bandwidth
are being plundered right now all over the internets,
as hardcore Mac geeks go all a-quiver over such new
features as Time Machine, the spiffy new Finder with
Quick View, Spaces, the new iChat, Mail, Core
Animation, etc.
Some links to give you an idea of what it's all about:
A guided tour, from the horse's mouth.
David Pogue in the New York Times points out some lesser-heralded features.
Crazy Apple Rumors goes down that route too, but gets sidetracked.
TUAW have cleared the decks for the next 24 hours in order to bring us a comprehensive guide to Leopard. This could result in the fewest references to the iPhone in a 24-hour period since before 29 June.

If you were to time travel and take a Mac with Leopard loaded on it back to 1973 and were to show some people then what computers will be like in the future, you could totally get some hot 1973 chick into bed with you! But make sure it’s not your mom, dude.
