Mac OS X Leopard

I upgraded to Leopard recently and I would say that this is probably the best update that I have seen so far (comparing to Jaguar and Tiger). The interface is so polished and well thought about. The layout of the system (for example network connections) is simple, uncluttered and yet packed with features.



Some of best bits that I have discovered so far are the sharing options that are available. It took me just a couple of clicks to see and control the entire screen of another mac from my mac. It again took me only a couple of clicks to create a computer to computer wireless network (802.11g) and login to another computer to access files. All the computers (including windows based) in the local network appear in the finder of the mac and can be accessed as if its just a drive on my machine. Spotlight search is incredibly fast. I can go on and on about this.

I used Vista for a while and frankly, it feels like a bunch of gimmicks put together with not much regard to intuitiveness.
