t3mur Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Ok so I finally got my hands on the future Mac Operating System, witch is still in BETA form. And from what i've seen, APPLE isn't trying to show off everything jsut yet. As they says on WWDC 2006 that they will keep most of the things as a secret for the final release. But everything looks stunning so far. Not lot of changes in the interface with will probably be included in their secret release. But lot of software changes. My favorites are space's and time machine. here is a glare of some screenshots i've took.. (PS i cant take a lot of pictures.. after all i "am" authorized to have this copy of Leopard ) This is just a typical Screenshot. Here you can see the screenshot that was taken during the animation of Timemachine. This is a screenshot taken of SPACES that allows you to have several desktops/space on 1 machine.. you can easily switch thought them and do different tasks on different desktops/spaces. Heres another screenshot of timemachine.. as you can see i just installed Leopard so i only have 1 day showing.. (1page) This is a screenshot of switching throught windows using spaces. Front row animation.. Another front row screenshot. There.. I will keep on posting new features that will arrive time to time. I have to go now..

rollcage Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 yeah, thanks for the screenshots. how does it run compared to tiger? is it faster? i've heard that it is actually faster in some cases, especially on intel macs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3mur Posted October 16, 2006 Author Share Posted October 16, 2006 OK.. I'm very new to this site, and Macs actually, so for me to do such thing is defenetly ment more to me then others.. But thanks for telling the truth.. Also I havent really seen TRUE/Personal/Torrent Downloaded screenshots Of leopard anywhere on this site yet.. maybe i had the balls to talk about it and also post screenshots. Umm I have the intel mac and it runs pretty quick.. I did find some bugs.. like the finder icon desapearing.. Other then that NO big changes... I'm guessing Apple's keeping the Best For last...

Colonel Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I've been running Leopard since a week after WWDC '06. What's your opinion on it? Personally, I really like it. I'm just not thrilled about the several compatiblity issues and bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfsasx Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I was never putting you down, Im glad you are excited! Im not really enjoying it too much anymore, i cant customize and a lot of things arent working too well System Wise it seems really stable other than sometimes i cant eject volumes... other than that i love Leopard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtualball Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I had Leopard but it wasn't really good enough to replace tiger. It was kinda unstable but it looked good. It doesnt feel like a major update from Tiger though Temur: Deelishus won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Fogge Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Sorry to bust your bubble, but the version of Frontrow that is included in the latest developer preview contains the blue iTunes logo as seen in Version 7 of iTunes. They are the initial release updated to add iTunes 7 to the Dock with everything else the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardFanning Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 The only real reason I look forward to Leopard is that I'm hoping to see a speed increase on my Intel Mac and GMA900. Other than any major kernel and system upgrades, I really don't see big changes between tiger and Leopard. I am hoping that the hype and system *enhancements* Apple is pushing in their marketing is only that, marketing to awe the less technically focused. Spaces makes me laugh, I've been using virtual desktops since 1995, I can't live without them, and the fact that Spaces is being marketed is something new and revolutionary is apalling. Virtual desktops should have been included from the start of OS X, its not like the technology wasn't already in place to deploy it. If I want to see fancy, new, and truly revolutionary features I will continue to track e17, which I hope will eventually come out of beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdriven Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Ahh, I remember when I had some screenshots of Leopard uploaded here. The problem I encountered was that Flickr sent me an email saying that I violated the DMCA and that the images were removed. So yeah. I have to agree with earlier posters, I am glad you like Leopard, but these screenshots aren't new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacX Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 When i first beta tested tiger it was a mess! First of all. It wasnt stable. Very unresponsive. But every single new update it got better and then it evolved into and TIGer. I am sure apple will do the same as before. Do not judge beta's. -MacX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cringemaster Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Ive been running leopard for about 3 weeks now. i decided to finally give it a go after i decided to wipe my drive on my intel mac mini. its relatively stable, but still has some quirks like the inability to use some programs, not being able to eject disks, rosetta problems (with photoshop), game problems (halo, half-life 2 and CSS via crossover, and various other little bugs. the game problems is due to the fact that the frameworks for those games arent yet included with 10.5. and crossover doesnt like running windoze apps. but other than those bugs, all the cool features are worth it. but i still cant help but feel that apple is holding back some of the BIG GUNS, most likely features that will slaughter Winblows Vitsa. The only thing i noticed different about Temurs pics was that the interface looks completely different from what im running. is it possible hes running the latest beta, or is he using a haxie (do they even work under leopard?). Temur, can you please post your build number from the about this mac box? Now that i look closer at the pics, im guessing this is apples new look for their OS. i like it, looks a lot cleaner than the brushed metal we've all come to know and love.
