Well since there have been Leopard reviews and I have used the final Leopard I thought i'd tell you all about it in my own review :D

First of all: its way, way, way better then Vista, and yes I have actually used Vista, and Leopard rules over Vista big time.

Second: The UI, it rocks. There are all the whistles and bells you've seen before, and some of it is very useful and will be the second nature stuff when you use OS X. Cover Flow for example, can preview PDF documents, pictures etc, as can Quick Look, just hold down the space bar and click something and it comes up in Quick Look, you can also go in to full screen like in Preview, with the same sort of disappearing controls at the bottom. Also Stacks, they look cool, and you would have thought it would be annoying to have to read your file names sideways, but its not! Also, you can just drag a folder in to the dock and it makes it a Stack!

Third: The other stuff, it also rocks. Time Machine, as well as looking cool, is the BEST backup software ever, and defiantly the easiest to use. Spaces is also very cool, you can even use Expose while viewing all your spaces! So you can bring up all of your desktops and use Expose, and just drag windows in to different spaces, its great.

I could go on forever about it, but you need to use it yourself, so you suckers wait until the 26th :D:D:D

Um, to be honest this sounds like you've just cobbled together a few facts about Leopard features and are pretending you're reviewing your own copy.

If you can tell me about the dock 2D/3D preferences, or the options for how Leopard displays centred images as desktop pictures, then I might believe you.

And post some screenshots of your own.

Until then you've said nothing new that I couldn't have made up myself.

Sorry!

So you dont believe me, eh? Well to tell you the truth I just got a 20 minute play with it a few days ago, and I thought i'd just share my experience and views.

I can exclusively tell you F8 brings up Spaces though. :D

Well, if you had 20 mins, then cool, and it sounds like you enjoyed it. Computing should be fun (unlike the frikkin' constant hard work of Windows), and it sounds like Leopard is something to look forward to. Fingers crossed my copy arrives tomorrow!

Hmm,, I don't think you did post this from Leopard, as you say you had a 20 minute play with Leopard a few days ago, yet you posted this today.

So why would we believe you when you contradict yourself!

Move along nothing to see here, suggest the moderators delete this thread.

Yep, its the way The Woz intended it :apple:

Hope you do get your copy of Leopard tomorrow, my iBook G3 is all messed up and even if it was working I wouldn't be able to install Leopard on it anyway so im forced to use Windows at the moment :(
