I'm stunned that you posted on topic. Congratulations. I knew you could do it.
We went through this months ago. There are a couple of wireless mice that don't follow the usual USB protocols and therefore need a driver from the manufacturer even to work...
Sounds like GoBack for the PC, but actually done in a way that works and is easy to use.
They don't mention how many times larger the external "backup" drive will have to be relative to the internal drive for that to work. Also, does it expire old states as the external drive fills up? I'm sure more details will come along later. Those with rates of change on their drives may not like the answer. (Think video production systems)
It's not subtle at all. It's the one thing that really jumps out at you watching an Apple demo versus a Windows demo. One is about how you can get more done, easier, and the other is about "look how cool our nerdvana is... don't worry about why you would ever use it, trust us, it's cool" right up until the blue screen anyway.
No, I hate HTML email. But, it's going to happen. Might as well accept it.
As a service, it's great.
Usenet could be served up via RSS, so...
Skype on steroids. Great stuff. Plus support for a lot of third-party cameras. (where is the list?)
I wonder how it will work on dual monitor configs. A lot of apps get completely stupid on window placement with multiple monitors. Why? They obviously never test their apps on such systems.
Until the web layout gets changed and the relative position changes, or I wonder if it actually "sees through the CSS" to grab the objects directly regardless of movement later?
250 Gig is a small HDD? BTW, Apple suggests using a seperate drive to back up Time Machine to. Because, believe it of not, its still NOT AVAILABLE everywhere! I live in Silicon Valley...
Nothing about regex. Remote searching cool. Ability to turn off dropping spotlight turds on remote drives, nothing said.
The industry standard calendar support is nice too.
Looked nice, but I have no experience using or needing it. The stock voices in Tiger do suck, so anything along those lines is nice.
Dashcode was leaked before, but even better now.
Core Animation.. wow. Bundling in FrontRow and photobooth a nice touch.
Boot Camp? yawn. Parallels took the better approach, and everybody knows it.
At least it's not doing what my PC used to do, where plugging in the mouse would make the cursor go crazy all over the...
64-bit up throught gui layers, no more split-mode apps. Very nice.
