Thank god the Finder didn't change. Any improvements there would have shocked way too many people.

The finder is GOING to change in a huge way. 100% sure of that, I'll bet anyone $500 on it. Apple is waiting for it to be too late for MS to copy the features.

I'm all about usability, and saw a lot of great usability improvements that get me excited about Leopard. Examples: iChat's screen sharing will be huge for me, since I give tech s…

I wonder if you can copy a file from Time Machine. From the QT movie it looks like it replaces the newer version with the older version when you hit restore. kman

I like Spaces, iChat and Time machine...but anyone else not care about Dashboard?

Leopard sounds good. Remember its a preview and only a preview. i dont really get excited until the release date gets closer, and more people start to talk about it. I aways find t…

what are the minimum specs for this operating system? would my ti 1ghz powerbook G4 with 1gig of RAM be able to run this beast? or would I have to get an upgrade? .... Alex

Apple is pretty innovative and are probably really pushing hard now since the upgrade to Intel and the MS announcement of a major "new" operating system. Vista is going to need go…
