The count down for the arrival of Apple OS X Leopard is on. Users across the world are dying to experience the magic of Apple’s new techno-creative wonder.
Leopard has exciting new features like Time Machine, Quick Look, Spaces.
Time Machine backs up your system files, applications, accounts, preferences, music, photos, movies, and documents. But what makes Time Machine different from other backup applications is that it not only keeps a spare copy of every file, it remembers how your system looked on a given day — so you can revisit your Mac as it appeared in the past.
Mail has been enhanced and has new features like in-built RSS Reader, personalized templates etc.
As the D-Day nears, the excitement is catching up. This is what I read today morning on Infoworld
Apple’s announcement of the impending delivery of OS X Leopard (release 10.5 of Mac and Xserve operating systems) marks the public debut of an engineering achievement that dwarfs iPhone, iPod, Windows, and Linux.
Leopard is a legitimately big deal. It’s underhyped compared to iPhone, and yet unlike iPhone, Leopard is a genuine triumph of customer-focused engineering. It’s a pleasure and a relief to see that Apple remembers how to deliver open, affordable, standards-based products.
