Sneak preview of Leopard at WWDC
Are you dying for a sneak peek at Leopard, the next incarnation
of OS X? If so, book a ticket for San Francisco in mid-August. Apple has announced, on its site and by email to
customers, that it will offer a preview of OS X Leopard at WWDC
2006, scheduled for August 7-11.The Apple site briefly describes five WWDC session tracks -- Application Technologies, Development Tools, Graphics and Media, Information Technologies, and OS Foundations -- but doesn't provide details about specific sessions. If you're considering going, try to get your boss to pick up the registration fee, which is a stiff $1295-$3500 before June 23 and even more after that date. If you're a student, don't overlook Apple's Student Scholarship Program. We told you before -- but it's worth a reminder -- that applications for a free WWDC ticket through that program are due on April 28.

Is the TUAW going to be live blogging from the event?
I simply can't wait to see what's going to come out at this show. Leopard will be amazing in itself but Im expecting a fair amount of hardware to show up.
If there is a beta of leopard it should be reviewed to the latest build of Vista that is out just to see how it stacks up. For comparison purposes of course.

I wish I was 18! I wanna apply for the student scholarship, cause there is no way I could make that much in that little time.

Isn't the outlook on Leopard a little spotty?
Good night everybody!

As long as they don't replace brushed metal with simulated leopard skin, I'll be down with the new OS.

I'm quite interested to see what features are going to be added for the SERVER version. Some sort of ACL for WGM + Server Admin would be useful, so users could add their own email/sub-domains in a virtual hosting environment.
Apple is a little behind the ball on the Server side of things, so lets hope that Leopard introduces some cool new (useful) features.
