Mac OS X Leopard Screenshots?
Blog nodes restored from backups of the old Drupal 5.x install.
Two screenshots of what apparently is a beta of Mac OS X 10.5 have been leaked, revealing what appears to be a desktop switcher and even Internet Explorer running natively in OS X. [digg]
Sure, it's fake[1]—but I like the ideas that are surfacing. I was hoping, however, that Leopard would look less like Tiger than these screenshots would seem to suggest. It's a major release of their operating system, and timed to compete with Vista, so I'd hope that it would look different enough from Tiger to attract attention.
[1] Notice that there isn't a drop-shadow along the right side of the "IE7" window. Furthermore, the scrollbar in "IE7" is straight out of Windows XP. Even if Parallels were somehow adapted to run out-of-the-box in Leopard, the scrollbar would still match the rest of the OS X GUI. I'd also like to think that Apple wouldn't make such an ugly transition between desktops—maybe they could have it slide in from side to side or top to bottom. That would look bad-ass.
