Leopard dashboard clock takes sweet time changing timezones


Here's a subtle treat in the Leopard Dashboard: the Clock widget, never really the source of much excitement ("Oooh, look -- it's 4 am in Tangiers!") now does a little dance, makes a little love, and gets down tonight when you change time zones. As in the movie above, you can watch the hands whirl about to the new time; the clock face gradually switches from black to white to indicate daylight hours in the new zone. How cute!

Update: Just to clarify, what's new in Leopard is the movement of the clock hands. The white/black clock face swap was present in 10.4 as well, although it was instantaneous instead of smoothly animated.
