With Leopard only a few days away, what’s the feature you’re most looking forward to getting your hands on? For me, it’s Mail.app. Yeah, I know it sounds lame, but I hear it’s superfast. Not sure if I’ll upgrade on day one, but I doubt I’ll make it to the end of November without a copy. How about you?
Um, are you sure that’s the camera Scott was talking about? ’cause he went on and on about 21 megapixels, etc. I think it was this one:
Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III SLR 21 Megapixel Digital Camera Body
Of course, I could be wrong.
Anyway, great site. I’m most looking forward to the better spotlight and the screen sharing via iChat (’cause, you know, I’m the family tech support anyway…).
Scott actually picked the Canon 1Ds mkIIII
here.
This is a full frame camera.
Thanks fellas — updated above… I can’t believe I could have possibly mixed up those clever and catchy model names/numbers!
Not gonna make it to December myself. Thanksgiving Friday is on my iCal as “Leopard Upgrade Day” for my herd.
I will most likely get it day of release as i need to get my Applications that i make run on Leopard
I think that Back To My Mac would have to be the feature that i want the most. Now all i have to do is get dotmac turning this out to be the most expensive update i have ever done
For myself, I’m looking forward to Time Machine, Stacks, Spaces and XCode.
I’ll be jumping on as soon as I possibly can so probably Friday night. Personally, I’m looking forward to Dashcode and to a lesser extent the built-in Ruby on Rails (I find it a massive PITA to install RoR manually on Tiger).
I am curious about which versions of Apache and PHP will ship with Leopard, though… haven’t been abel to find much info about that.
Hi, I would love to know, an image optimizer for OSX.
I use photoshop, and when I screenshot apples black X LEOPARD picture on there website, and have it as a PNG.
I can’t for the life of me get it down to the size Apple has, Is there an Apple version of photoshop!
MANY THANKS
from Perth, Western Australia.
I am waiting until this weeks MBW to install the new system. Want to hear from the boys first.
