just watched the video.
10.5 looks like the "glossy imac" of mac os'es...lots of gimmicks (with some good ideas underneath).
time machine, for instance...a big show to find a missing file.
stacks. (at least, you can choose 'grid').
the templates in Mail.
the new '3D' dock (i hide mine anyway).
the finder's 'coverflow' thing; nice ideas, but i can also READ the names of my files.
and hey, can i hide my porn (well, if i had any) when scrolling thru images?
some of leopard seems like ways to make us use our brains less (not sure that's a good thing).
anyway, for me, i am looking forward to the underlying things, to speed, stability/
my main concern is my APPS; the os should support that.
just hope the eye candy in 10.5 doesn't distract from work.
and, yes, just my 2cents, in advance of friday's arrival...
(am poking self...)
