if true, this better be the next to last build before going gold. They're running out of time even for a 30th or 31st shipping date. Hope the Leopard boxes are at least ready for shipping. I would suspect at least 50,000 orders on launch date. Plus, in theory, every Mac available in retail stores the next day will need to have Leopard on it.

I am downloading it now from ADC, from the seed notes there are still some showstoppers for me to completely try this build and ditch Tiger for good.
