Apple CEO Steve Jobs gave Mac developers and the public its first look at Mac OS X v10.5, code-named Leopard, Monday at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco, Apples annual gathering of registered developers. The sixth major version of Mac OS X since its inception, Leopard will ship in Spring, 2007, according to Jobs.

I think Time Machine is the one that's main draw in this OS version.

Panther - Expose
Tiger - Spotlight
Leopard - Time Machine

Spaces is pretty cool. I saw it on some Linux OS before. Just that OSX has shortcut keys for them & the ability to drag and drop windows.

And would really be useful when in my department since we're always working on different stories with related graphics.

On a personal computing level, it hasn't been that juicy enuff to warrant a upgrade for me when Leopard eventually does ships. Tiger been working very well for me.
