Steven Levy of Newsweek posts video review of Leopard

Newsweek editor Steven Levy (he of iPod authorial fame) has posted a video review of Leopard for your enjoyment. Nice rundown of new features and explanation of Time Machine; however, he does a lot of Spaces whisking-about without explaining what the feature is or what he's doing.

The video isn't embeddable but you can see it by following the "Read" link below. Enjoy!

Yea... very sad...
I thought I had seen that footage before - turns out he stole it from Apple's "Mac OS Leopard. A guided tour." Remember the bicycle in Mail? and the really nice iphoto pictures?

Sad... and yes I agree with #11, it is a very worthless review. It is his voice dubbed over Apple's footage.

To "Steven Levy", I only have to say, "get your own footage, jerk"
To TUAW, I say, "Thanks, but no thanks."

The video footage looks like stock b-roll which was produced by Apple.

Wow. What a terrible, worthless review. No good information whatsoever. Just stuttering over how okay it is.

You probably don't see it b/c you're using AdBlock. I had to open the link with IE Tab to see it.

@Paul K: as it turns out, Adblock/flashblock were the problems. disabled Adblock, saw the flash overlay. Hit the play button and got the video controls to appear.
Not too much additional information, but kind of nice to see it in motion on a "real person"s computer.

Works fine here. Safari 2.0.4 on a Core 2 Duo MacBook.

No, you're not. I'm having the same problem here, regardless of whether I use Camino, Firefox or Safari.

How is everyone else getting this to work?

Very weak review. Steven Levy's speaking style reminds me of Woody Allen.

Adblock blocks the flash player. Just a heads up if you wonder where the video link is on the page.
