I was pretty impressed. I mean this is a first glimpse and remember our first glimpse at Tiger. Not much more was shown there but yet we all love it. I thought the jabs at MS got a bit old, I mean its fun after a while but eh its bad karma.

Spaces looks awesome, I really look forward to using that as well as the Dashboard web thing. But the one that I really see as being awesome is the desktop collaboration that is built into iChat. Now that looks cool, I can really see myself using that.

I really think that those top secret things are probably a revamped UI and new finder. Its typical Apple style to give us a taste but not the whole picture until the end. MacWorld will probably offer much more info as well as developers that tear apart the beta given out.

All in all, I was pleased, they gave us everything that I expected and Leopard looks like it is shaping up to be a really cool release. I do agree though, it is much better to watch the keynote and see the features in action rather than just read about them.

Thats what I was thinking too, I remeber seeing this picture.

Spring of '07 is still "early '07", which is what is shown on that picture. Perhaps they have decided to add some nice "Top Secret" things and those have pushed back the original projected release date.

Do have to agree with you. I mean, yeah its a bit of a chuckle but as you say - karma can be a bit of a bitch sometimes. Apple are doing well at the moment for sure - but its quite easy to put your foot wrong, and the giant Microsoft gorilla is never far behind waiting for them...

I watched a few of the videos on the Apple site about Leopard - did make me feel better seeing some of the vids in action as they didn't sound amazing through MacRumours IRC updates.. not so keen on the swirling timewarp of TimeMachine though - looks a BIT tacky. If i'm panicing that I might have just lost some important work, cute visual effects are the last thing on my mind!

Still think Leopard will be a good release though. Just hope I have a Mac at home before then so I can rush out and get it when it ships :)

Well there was the Mac Pro, which besides the graphics offerings on the base level, I am insanely impressed by. And the graphics really don't even make me mad because, the people buying this are going to be using it for Aperture, Photoshop, Final Cut, Maya, etc and a 7300GT will do all of that just fine. It just will not power games very well.

"They gave people a Preview build, so that would be considered the first public beta of Mac OS X Leopard."

Its only for developers so that isn't a public beta..i'm still waiting to d/l it through my ADC account

I know this is probably obvious thinking but that Web Clip feature would really come in handy when you wanna do a widget for Neowin's "Recent Forum Posts" section in the front page.

That's gonna be the first widget I'll do when I get Leopard.

Just finished watching the keynote and all I can say is I'm beyond impressed. There's no way in my next computer won't be a Mac, Leopard looks fantastic! The Web Clip feature would be very handy and its a great feature.

I have a question about "Time Machine" though; let's say you delete some private files for a reason, but then that means anyone can go on your Mac and go back in time and view the private files you deleted. How would that work? Would you be able to turn off Time Machine from working in specific folders? :)

Hey, keep in mind. Apple wasn't even going to have all their computers on Intel processors by the end of next year. I'm sure Leopard will be released sooner.

I am very excited about Leopard now. Once watching the keynote you get to see all the new features, plus the "Top Secret" ones. My favorite, in which I thought was stupid when I first heard the description, is being able to make widgets out of web pages. I am also excited about the iChat updates.

Time Machine looks amazing! I have lost much of my work from accidental perm. deletion, and this will making backing up files much easier/safer.

I am also looking forward to the upgraded gadgets Apple has yet to release this year and the coming year. (2007)

I am pretty much satisfied with Apple so far... Microsoft the other hand. :p (Haha, don't reply to that)

I know what you mean. I can now recover lost porn!

.... Yeah, I said it. PORN!

Guys, if you're having trouble with the streaming video, try this.

Go to System preferences --> Quicktime --> Advanced. Select the Transport Setup drop down menu, select Custom... Now, if your Transport Protocol is set to UDP, change that to HTTP and Port ID 80.

Now restart the video http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/aug_...vent/index.html

And it should run smooth, it did for me.

I'm not sure if this ''advanced'' tab exist in non-pro versions of quicktime. But it should, good luck

No. Not if the other user doesn't have the privileges to do so.

You are in windows mode there ;)

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

    • Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
