Found Footage: Tiger Quick Tour

We're all at some point subject to the typical "Yes, OS X is better. Why? Well, a lot of reasons, really..." scenarios, where we could sit there and ramble on for hours about OS X's undeniably fantastic features, its simplicity, and the overall beauty of the operating system itself. But let's face it: What good is the Talk without some substance and visual examples to back it up?

For that, we have this great Tiger Quick Tour video, where OS X's Senior Director of Product Marketing, Ken Bereskin, takes you through Tiger feature by feature, from Spotlight to Dashboard to iChat, Safari, Mail, etc.

So next time you're in one of those "Prove it" situations, just point the lambasting PC user in the direction of this well-done, informative video. Who knows, it may just make a switcher out of him.

I'm getting audio, but no video. When I preordered, I rememeber getting some sort of 'special' sneak peak at Tiger, too. I think it was these videos.

I wish Apple would show these features to people in some commercials for OS X...

ADVERTISE these features Apple, before Vista comes out and claims they invented them!

People who preordered Tiger in the UK were given links to these clips. I can't remember how many videos there were - but they were originally restricting people to watching it 6 or so times within the first 40 days of Tiger's release.

Yeah, he's probably using a G5 with LOTS of ram. Like 4 Gig of ram.

But man! I'm only a tenth of the way in and I'm already learning stuff that I never knew about Tiger. Like adding in pictures to iPhoto through Spotlight's slideshow? Honestly, how many of you guy's knew about that?

Uh, Chris. It's either a 23" or 30" Pro display.

What is that computer he's using? It looks like some kind of suped of imac. Or maybe it's just a screen because I can only see one cable coming out of it. Wierd.
