Apple Shows Off Nearly Finished Mac OS X Leopard

At WWDC 2007 in San Francisco, Apple showed off a near-final version of the upcoming Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. The operating system, to be released in October, has a lot of new improvements. Microsoft barely manges to bolt on a new interface (and a couple security updates) to Windows XP in six years, meanwhile Apple majorly improves their OS, which was already way ahead of Windows. Here are some of the improvements Apple made:

The Time Machine backup system
Dock updated (including the new “Stacks”
Core Animation
Spaces, a Virtual Desktop tool
Boot Camp. Want to dual boot Windows? Go ahead. You don’t need two computers anymore.
iChat, iCal, and Mail upgrades
DashCode: Make your own Dashboard widgets with a few clicks.
And more, obviously.

The revolutionary OS will cost $129 USD. A lot cheaper than Vista, eh?

You can view the press release here, and also the OS X Leopard page. The Leopard page has some screenshots of the OS.
