These fakes are being done by the same group of friends or online buddies.

If that's true, that very, very sad. I can't imagine people wasting their time in such a frivolous way... and for what? To fool a few people so you can sit around and high-five each other? I don't get it. What does someone get out of that? :confused:
 
Fake.....


Seriously even Big Foot and UFOs have more credible evidence than this.......

I work as an Imagery Analyst and if someone handed me this footage first I would put it in the bin and second I would be ripping them to pieces for wasting my time.

Why do people put this crap on the internet:confused:

Looks fake. Way too responsive for an imac G5 1.6. Even my powermac G5 doesnt explore new windows that quickly. Notice as soon as she/he clicked on the mac HD link, it appeared immediately!

Also, if it was real...wouldnt she show us more of the OS such as...well...idk...other stuff?

Errrr my G4 dual 1gig is as fast or faster.
 
I must be getting good at spotting fakes. I'll throw my two cents in on the "fake" vote.

Something's hokey about this. Watch the cursor movement. It's very smooth and very straight as it goes from point-to-point, as if it's being manipulated by something other than a person. When I move my cursor, it's jerky and fast and slow and all over the place. This cursor is almost robotically smooth in ways that screams fake to me. Whoever suggested that Director might have been used here (or some other similar software) is probably right.

Real or not, that video really isn't all that interesting IMO.

I hope tabbed finder isn't the most exciting new feature in Leopard. I really can't see myself utilizing this feature.

There should be another option on the poll: "Don't Care"

Agreed. If this really is things to come then Im not that impressed.

Not trying to argue but do you have any evidence? What makes this video garbage? Again Im sure you actually are an imagery analyst so Im just asking if you could tell us what's wrong with it, and I hope you're right too...Im not that impressed with this video.

I think it is a fake video. Why on earth would they show NOTHING but the tabbed browsing. Because it takes too much work.

That's what I thought as well.

Lets face it.......many people could probably GUESS(!) that tabbed browsing and more consistent GUI would be in the next revision. If this video is indeed accurate, it's probably just coincidence.

Show me something hard to fake.

I'm just saying video footage of the low rez kind of shake kind doesn't make credible evidence. If I had to make an informed decision if it was real or fake my professional training would steer me towards fake for these reasons:
1) low rez and less than 45 seconds of footage.
2) it does not elaborate on any new feature, just on previous fakes (the tabs thing).
3) the items on the dock look identical to the previous 10.4
4) the mac looks like it's running too smooth for actual computer operation of a new unreleased OS. I'm thinking it's a hi-rez retouched video playing on the mac, you can get these video retouch results very easy in programs like Combustion, Shake, Motion, etc.....
5) the cursor keeps disappearing in some shots, no continuity of the mouse movement for the operations of the user. The cursor appears from no where to select the Macintosh HDD icon, there should be at least some blur or sight of it coming into frame, it just appears. (like bigfoot or a UFO)
6) And the over use of leopard labled on as much as possible, ok I get they are trying to sell the Mac OS 10.5 thing, that also was a little suss.

Well that's my USD$0.02

Looks good and real! I think the Finder looks the same as iTunes, GUI wise.

I don't care if it's real or not. The tabs in Finder really seem like a good application. Think about being able to drag stuff upon the tabs and the tab would come on top. Much easier than for example starting to drag, then use exposé to see the folder you wanna get into etc etc..

Only about one month to go to see what's really in the works :)

I think that the most exciting new feature in Leopard is going to be virtualization. Unless Apple surprises me with something even better

I really can't see myself utilizing this feature.

Konqueror is a tabbed filemanager (and more), and I love that feature :). Moving files between two different places is very easy, and you could do it in just one window.

I don't like the look of the folders either. That's why I use CandyBar.

Is it really so that you need to pay money for the privilege of changing the appearance of the folders? It just boggles the mind!
 
Fake or not? Does it really matter?

I just hope that Apple come up with something impressive for Leopard. A tabbed finder isn't going to get me excited enough to rush out and buy an upgrade when it goes on sale. Even if this is genuine, I hardly think that this one, minor, improvement would warrant the whole team of Apple executives that have been announced. Surely this points to many more changes?

We will just have to wait for WWDC.

Am I the only one who moves files in one window just by dragging them to the HDD icon and further down the directory structure? I don't see the advantage of tabbed finder. It's not like Apple to follow what everybody else does.

Oh and by the way: Fake!
 
Maybe it's just me but if that is the new Finder, visually it looks bland. This new dark plastic style doesn't suite everything IMO.
