On some hardware yes, maybe not in your Mac much, but if you have enough RAM in your Mini, it should fly

1,5 GB here...
i hope it can fly. lol
While I am just as excited (ok not as much) as the next person, is it really wise/right/sane to make this news when someone openly said he downloaded an illegal copy of the software but feels validated in doing so since he pre-ordred a family pack? Just curious but clearly it's ok or it wouldn't be here.
Leopard appears cool and it is great that the person who downloaded it finds mail to be blazing fast. RSS fees in Mail is indeed a cool feature. Not a must have but it will become a great to have in no time at all.

I will believe speed when I see it.
Someone saying something is fast is completely relative.
The rest of the stuff was good.

Does Apple have any way of tracking pirated copies of Leopard (like how Windows makes you register as specific ID number for each copy)?
I've never had to enter a code or anything with any of my previous (legal) copies of operating systems so I guess I've never thought of what would happen when people stole it.

Actually it was this riveting report on a downloaded copy of Leopard that made me pre-order for Friday.
I assume it has to do with the law. They are allowed to report 3rd party information but not allowed to assist in obtaining that information. Not that i know anything about law, so don't take my word on it.
Jessica, I agree with you. This post will just encourage illegal file sharing. Which I think has two problems...
1. Lost of revenue for Apple. I don't want to lose Apple because of that and I don't want Apple to have to start with "Activation" to protect their product. They trust us, we should repay that trust by buying the product.
2. It just gives ammunition to the Music and Movie industries. I can hear the "I told you iPod owners steal music; that's why we need DRM" already.

First impressions of the final version of Leoard is newsworthy.
You think AppleInsider had a "legal" copy of leopard to do their leopard series?
I do not condone piracy and we will ban anyone trying to distribute or facilitate piracy here. But if someone is honest/stupid enough to post first impressions of the final build of Leopard in a public forum, it is of interest.

The Mac Pro is in line for the biggest improvements...
For me, the main changes should come in a speedier final Safari, as that is the app I use most...
