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!

Well, just got the shipping notification from Apple and Leopard is in the Fedex system and on its way to me. Should be here before 10:30 AM tomorrow :).

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

Audio but no video in the clip. Odd.

link doesn't work for me, I'm afraid -- takes me to a "Newsweek Video - comments" page. Searching newsweek.com doesn't turn up the video. Am I a dope?

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?

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

@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.

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

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

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

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."

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