MAC OS X Leopard (10.5) Launch

Yesterday (26th Oct) was the launch of OS X Leopard (10.5), Rach and I went to iShop at 5pm and spent the hour waiting for the launch (Rachel: I never imagine queuing up for such an event before and it was a first time for both of us). At 6pm, we went in and gotten a Free Limited Edition T-Shirt, limited to first 50 customers only! Then, while looking around and exploring the new Leopard OS X, we were so thick-skinned (at least for me) and went for the roaring challenge. (Rachel: I had to nudge him or he'll just end up looking at it from afar)

Preparation

Leopard T-Shirt

Limited Edtion Apple Cap!

About a minute..... quite long though.

Finally.....

All thanks to my dearest Rach, we gotten ourselves a cap each! 1 White, 1 Black cap on top of our Free T-Shirt. Then best of all, gotten the MAC OS X Leopard 10.5 with 5% discount! Thanks Edmund for your help. Next, it'll be iLife '08 and thanks Edmund again. =) Along with the purchase, we have free vouchers (movie vouchers). Good for us to go dating. LOL. Rach and I had a great date and spent time knowing each other too. (Rachel: Yup, as gals we have to give the guys some encouragement and support too!)

Look at the login screen

Nice right? That's QuickLook on Leopard

OS X 10.5 on the C2D 2.16 MBP.

10 & 11..... ask if you wanna know the meaning.

Our gifts. LOL! Rach got the other half.....
*Let her post it.

Installed the OS and waited for an hour using the Archive & Install method. This gives the OS a fresh installation. Upgrade option only installs on top of 10.4 which can be quite slow I feel. Overall, the OS is quite fast. Faster than 10.4 (Tiger). Even loading of applications are faster in my opinion.

Trying out many features and will explore more before I post up more. Oh yeah, corporate prayer was quite interesting yesterday. **Chris, have you gotten your OS X Leopard via post? I think he's more crazy about it than me.

Be Blessed!
