Hmm... If they get this packed there will be a lot of people trained in the new OS, that can't hurt!

Uhg. I don't want to wait till June for Leopard! [/pout]

Oh, and there's that weird fat border again. Don't know if that was put there by AI or Apple...

How many OSX sessions have there been in the past? I'm still holding out for multitouch being one of the new technologies, haha

Core Animation will be a BIG deal in Leopard and lie behind a great deal of the "secret features" we're all waiting for. Mark my words!

WWDC is lining up to be the backup release date at this rate. Hopefully Apple's "spring" comes sooner!

Yeah, I have a feeling that Core Animation support in 3rd party apps will be a major driver of Leopard migrations. Every little Mac app will start using Core Animation, and become Leopard only, and so people will migrate.

Yup I expect to see Core Animation overload initially. I say bring it on and the better implementations of CAn will stick. Quartz now being threaded better means we get the features without the slowdowns

Developers seem to be pretty keen on Leopard. I know I'm keen on it simply because I don't need major whizzbang features as much as I I need improved integration.

The fact that Apple now has a Calendar Store for all applications makes me happy. I don't don't want to deal with multiple calendars that don't play well with others. Let me input dates once where all other applications that would have a need to edit iCal information know of my recent calendar changes.

64-bit Quicktime. I read that Apple's worked a lot with the QT Kit frameworks. AVC encoding is improved which is important to me because I want to rip my DVDs to AVC for streaming to Apple TV.

I'm pumped as always for new versions of the OS. WWDC is going to be a biggie.

Is it just me or do this year's WWDC sessions sound like a recap of last years? I went to the Portland Leopard talk and they talked about all the stuff mentioned in the post above. I have all the source code for it. I don't know, nothing really new IMO. Only real reason to go there is to mingle and get the sessions you missed last year cause you were in the other ones... or here's an idea... just watch them on iTunes if you have an ADC account. /shrug

Though in Apple's defense, the price to go is 1295 if you sign up right now, which is cheaper than other years. Also can get another 100 off of select membership (1695).
