Apple Unveils Near Final Mac OS X Leopard
Apple unveiled a near final version of Mac OS® X Leopard, the sixth major release of the world’s most advanced operating system. Scheduled to ship in October, Leopard introduces over 300 new features.
Amongst the new features are a new Desktop and Dock with Stacks, an intuitive new way to organize files.
An updated Finder featuring Cover Flow.
Quick Look, a new way to rapidly preview most files without opening an application.
Time Machine, a new way to easily and automatically back up and restore lost files.
Spaces, a powerful new feature to create groups of applications and instantly switch between them.
New enhanced iChat and Mail applications, which easily allow users to communicate even more creatively.
And a new way to easily browse and share files between multiple Macs.
“Leopard is the best release of Mac OS X to date, surpassing even Tiger, and will further extend Mac OS X’s leadership as the most advanced and innovative operating system in the world,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “We think current and prospective customers are going to love Leopard, and that it will help make the Mac even more popular.”
