Snow Leopard Out Today

[gekko]

It's funny, I installed it and when it finished, I couldn't notice a single difference. Not sure if that's good or bad. I'm actually glad they did a lot of work under the hood, but it's still quite surprising.

I did notice there is a new dock preference to minimize into the app icon, which I think is really sweet. Not sure if it's going to drive me crazy or not, but so far I like the idea. Also like the new QuickTime look a lot more than I thought I would, despite it breaking Apple's own UI guidelines.

However, what I'm most impressed by is the screen recording in QuickTime. Is it a big feature? Not at all. However, I can't believe with everything else, this hasn't been a default feature. I don't know if I'll ever use it, but I like having it there for me (and free) for when I want it. Also gives the ability to do audio with the screen recording (seems obvious), so there's no need to sync anything up.
