Apple Introduces Mac OS X Leopard Features

Apple is announcing it as the worlds most advanced operating system - the Mac OS X Leopard and it will run on a Mac computer. Now you can have a sneak peek at the features of Mac OS X Leopard.

Apple users were eagerly awaiting the Preview of Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, the next version of the extremely popular Macintosh computer, at Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2006) to be held on August 7 - August 11, 2006 at Moscone Center West in San Francisco, California.

Some of the cool new features are

- Spotlight for Leopard introduces searching across network-mounted folders, so you can find what you need on more than one Mac.
- iChat will now let you chat from virtually everywhere with video backdrops. Create a video alter-ego in iChat using fun effects from Photo Booth, built into Leopard.

Boot Camp lets you install and run the Windows XP operating system on your Mac and it will now be inbuilt in the Leopard version. Parallels Desktop for Mac is another wonderful tools which lets you run Windows and Mac OS X together.
