Mac OS X Snow Leapard: Windows Just Got More Lame

One of the many announcements from WWDC (Apple's developer conference), was the details and release of their latest software upgrades for MAC.

As if Apple software wasn't already good enough, now it will be, "better, faster, easier" and oh yeah take less room then the current version.

Here is a list of some of the improvements from Apple's website:

1.) More responsive finder - 1.7x faster PDF refresh, 1.4x faster JPG refresh.
2.) Quicker time machine backup - 50% faster backup times.
3.) Faster wake, shut down, and join wireless networks - 2x faster wake up, 1.75x faster shut down, 1.55x faster join wireless networks.
4.) Faster upgrade - 45% faster upgrade from Leopard.
5.) Smaller footprint - Frees up 6GB of space on your hard drive over Leopard.
6.) New Quicktime application - Cleaner, less cluttered look and feel.
7.) Chinese character input - Draw them right on the Multi-Touch trackpad in your Mac notebook
7.) New iChat application - 4x the resolution of the previous version.
8.) Faster more powerful Safari - 50% faster java script performance.
9.) More reliable disk eject.
10.) The list go on and on.

Whoa, at this point if you are a MAC user, you should be jumping up and down. If you are reading this on your PC, you might want to wipe the spit of your screen and head on down to the Apple store. The upgrade should be available in the "September" time frame at a cost of $29. Will it be worth it. Absolutely.

...as always, tell me what you think.
