Today Steve Jobs announced the new amazing features of OSX 10.5 aka Leopard.
- they can run natively on Intel hardware (wow, I stopped using Intel in favor of AMD at least 5 years ago)
- they have the Time Machine, or they can apply versioning to files and directories (wow, I’ve been using Subversion for so long…)
- they have multiple virtual desktops (wow, we have had this feature since KDE 1.0)
- they can index files according to metadata
OK, maybe Spotlight is cool, but why so much fuss for such a simple new feature? When you talk with Mac enthusiasts they seem to imply 10.5 is a revolution and nothing will be ever the same under the sun. I don’t think so.
