Flickr Find: Mac OS X Leopard Preview screenshots

I'm not sure if these screenshots are breaking some NDA, but Flickr user Alex Patterson has posted a photoset of Leopard screenshots. They certainly help fuel the fire on a number of theories spawned from our tidbit roundup posts, such as Spotlight being a full-blown app. A few of the images are extreme closeups or slightly blurry, but overall it's a nice set of Leopard pr0n to keep the excitement going.

During the Tiger release cycle, seeds were continually leaked in violation of the NDA. One student was caught leaking a seed, and when Apple sued, all they got for their effort was a huge pile of negative publicity.

This time around, we have "secret features" that aren't being included on the seeds.

Thanks guys.

Those shots are from the leaked WWDC developer preview that is making the rounds on Bittorrent sites since last week. Apart from the 10 things discussed on the keynote, there's nothing new at all. I guess that why Steve said he could not discuss the other 'things' since they were still a surprise (and probably not included in the OS he demoed).

I suppose there must not be any conclusions. Because they are bases on gossips. To make real conclusions we must have more information

I have access to my University's Apple Seeding server, and I have given Leopard a go -- these shots are 100% real. Grab is present in Leopard, and I think the reason that he took pictures of the monitor and not actual screenshots was to prove that they are real -- it is MUCH easier to photoshop an actual screenshot than to photoshop one of these images with the scan lines and everything, and I can back it up that I have seen every single one of these screens. It was more than likely the build that was pirated, as my Seeding server version only allows booting on Intel Macs (it is strangely two versions behind the one given to developers.)

If in spotlight you press return to launch an app now, then there must be some way to invoke the show all option which currently appears when pressing return. As such, spotlight being it's own app, and thus available via the dock would make a certain sense.

You see how foolish he is advertising his full name in his flickr account and going on about how it would seem he downloaded from some illegal source
