Leopard Server details posted
With all the excitement over the Leopard client, we neglected to mention that Leopard Server will also be shipping on October 26th. Apple has updated the Leopard server website with lots of details including:
- iCal Server - Let's you share calendars across the enterprise.
- Wiki Server - All about collaboration.
- Podcast Producer - Your one stop shop for making, and distributing, podcasts.
OS X Leopard Server will cost you $499 for the 10-client version and $999 for the unlimited version (this version is included with Xserves). Leopard Server is covered by both the Apple Up to Date program and Apple Maintenance Program so if you recently purchased a copy you can get the new version for $9.95 (or as part of your Maintenance).

Great to see what the new reactive menu bar and desktop look like with the more refined (non-magenta!) blue background. Almost looks nice.

Does anyone know if recipients of the maintenance program copies can expect them to arrive on the the 26th as well?

In the showcase images on this page, it shows a "2 X 2.7Ghz Xeon processor"

I've always loved Xserves and jumped at the chance to play with one. This only makes me love them more...

So how does this compare to say, Server 03? What's the OSX server share in Fortune 500 and the likes?

I like the default Server desktop picture a lot more than the client version.

Ive got quite a few macs, i use em at home and at work. Ive never used the server version of osx, and i'm totally ignorant about it s capabilities/features, but will read up on it tonight. Is there anything specific about it that makes it better than the regular version? Im not an administrator or anything, but will it make maintaining multiple macs at home that much better/easier? Can it do a roaming desktop thing, automatic backups of clients?

Good eye there! Wonder when they´ll release updates...

The Pictures 1 & 3 and 2 & 4 seem to have been taken in different stages of development; so the Dock in pictures 1 & 3 has a different angle, shading compared to 2 & 4. Propably changed iLife builds during that time.
I personally wonder how they are going to map resources (rooms, people) as you can see them here:
