Reader Survey: Leopard the (good) little things

Scrolling content of not focused windows, faster spotlight(not sure if it's leopard, or spotlight), menu seach, overall look of leopard...icons, colors etc

The Finder finally remembers column spacing between log-ins or restarts.

Dictionary also blended to Spotlight, here's the screenshot

Because I spend a lot of time editing photos and sorting them in "edited", "non-edited" and "partially edited" folders, the addition of Coverflow to finder has made working a lot faster.

I must confess, I was initially sceptical of stacks, but use it most days.

And - something that may make me the subject of some abuse - seeing as I always have my dock on the right side, I quite like the new dock (when on the side). It's nice and plain.

Ugh, enough with this 'New Finder' crap. It's exactly the same as it was. When Apple bring out a Finder that works *better* than Windows Explorer, I'll listen.

Does the Spotlight calculator know units and physical constants, like the google searchbar calculator does? Ie, can I type in G/c and get Newton's gravitational constant divided by the speed of light?

Mat - I think you mean "gracefully" instead of "graciously." Unless I'm missing something.

I've noticed that the when you rename items in the finder by pressing "return" it doesn't highlight the extension.

Also noticed when doing a screen shot it gives you the pixel count.

Spotlight even knows pi to the 10th decimal!

I love quicklook. I didn't think so much of it during the demos, but actually using it it amazing. it recognizes everything-word files, images, movies, songs, EVERYTHING

another thing is: i use the "require password to wake from screensaver/sleep" feature, and before, my computer would go into screensaver and then i would hit the mouse immediately and i would have to enter in my password. in leopard, there's like a 3 second delay, so if you're actually at your computer and it goes into screensaver, you can just move the mouse and it'll return to normal without having to enter your password.

i know it doesn't sound like a big deal, but truly, it's the little things that make the difference.
