Overview

The good:
  • Elegant backup via Time Machine
  • Finder offers powerful navigation tweaks
  • Novel workspace customisation through Spaces' virtual desktops
  • Integration with Web data and applications
  • Cover Flow visualises file browsing
  • iChat Theater offers green-screen backgrounds and lets users access each others' desktops
  • Boot Camp included
The bad:
  • Some new features, such as geotagging, aren't obvious to find
  • Users with older Macs can't run Leopard
The bottomline:

The grace of Leopard's interface enhancements makes productivity more pleasurable with a Mac, as more than 300 functional and fun features top off this update.
