The growling of an approaching Leopard

My posts tend to be exercises in logorrhea, but this one is short. If you are a Mac user (and, as I’ve said before, you should be!) and care anything about the history of the Mac and what makes it the finest OS around, you should read AppleInsider’s series of articles. They cover the new features and updated applications in OS 10.5, “Leopard,” which hits shelves on Friday.

Jump right to “Road to Mac OS X Leopard” and start reading:

• Finder 10.5
• Dock 1.6
• Dashboard, Spotlight, and the Desktop
• Mail 3.0
• Time Machine (this is amazing!)
• Spaces
• iCal 3.0
• iChat 4.0
• Safari 3.0
• Dictionary 2.0
• Preview 4.0
