Mine said prepared for shipment, but it's been like 14 hours and it's still not being shipped :(!

Just because its prepared doesn't mean its going to ship right away. I'm prepared for winter, but I'm not wearing my winter jacket now or shoveling snow. Have patience, just means your order is ready to go, and likely will be one of the first come Friday.

I know... sorry for my english. I meant, it's prepared for shipment, but it's only standing in a box beside a truck far from here or something like that.

So, we are supposed to get them the next day or something? This is probably in here somewhere, but am I correct in thinking that leopard will preform better than Tiger because it is 64-bit all the way through? I am contemplating upgrading to 2 gigs or RAM but I thought that it is supposed to be even faster.

From Gruber:

Another thing to keep in mind is that the GM version of 10.5.0 definitely contains at least some significant differences from the last version seeded via ADC to developers. Anyone taking screenshots of the Dock on the side of the screen, for example, is going to have to retake them after installing the public release.

Hello.

So, the behavior of the Dock on the side has been changed? This is good news. Maybe people who prefer the Dock on the side by myself will still have control over how Stacks are displayed.

And maybe the hideous Aqua scroll bars will finally be replaced, too.

In the guided tour, they are not replaced. I don't know if they wanted to hide it for now and change the tour video on Friday, but I doubt the scrollbars will change, unfortunately.

But hey, a scrollbar is a scrollbar. It's not the end of the world.

You can bet that tour was made probably a month before.

And maybe the hideous Aqua scroll bars will finally be replaced, too.

Wanna put some money on it? :p

Watching the Guided Tour only made me want Leopard even more. I can't wait until Friday when I'll be at the Apple Store nearby at 6:00.

I wonder if it'll be crowded?... It's not like it's the iPhone launch, but still...

That's what I was wondering, too. I remember the lines for the iPhone launch, and I hope it's going to be nowhere near that! I really want a shirt :laugh:

You'll only see an increase in performance if you have a 64-bit Mac and run 64-bit applications. Although you might see slight system performance increases (in fact Leopard is apparently faster than Tiger on the same system).

Like every piece of software now a days online it is bound to be leaked sooner or later. I already ordered my copy, but am curious if it has been leaked or not?

The beta builds have been leaked but the GM build has not since Apple has not given it out yet.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.
