CoverFlow does NOT NOT NOT give you a preview of either .eps or .indd files! It WILL show you .ai and .psd files, however, which I find capricious and cruel.

As a graphic designer, I'm ALWAYS looking at a client's folder saying to myself..."Hmm. Did I save that layout as FenderGuitarA, FenderGuitarA2, or FenderGuitar B?" Being able to to look at the files in question was the biggest allure of Leopard. Ever. Since a majority of my layout is done in InDesign, not supporting those files is a GINORMOUS deal to me.

Patch? Please, please, please!!!

Not true. I can Quicklook .psd files fine. But you're right, .ai files do not work, and this has GOT to be a bug, because .ai with PDF compatibility should be the most preview-able files on OSX. Check out how the file looks in Finder's column view. See, no preview screen there, either.

This is either a bug on the side of Apple or Adobe and should get fixed soon.

It will just disconnect without any warning. When I try to reconnect, it can't find any (of the three) wireless networks I have available to me. The only way to fix the problem is to reboot the computer. Has anyone else experienced this?

]]> <![CDATA[Our Unabridged Apple OS X Leopard Test Notes (24 Hours and Counting...)]]> @erichg14: quicklook does NOT work with any CS3 documents. It only shows a larger version of the standard icon. There is no preview, even if the doc is set to have PDF compatibility. Even Tiger would do that. ??

I guess this *could* be an optional feature, but I, for one, would be annoyed to hell if I was in a particular Space and couldn't find a file that should be on the desktop because it was put there by another app in another Space.

For folders with large amounts of files, i.e. Documents or Applications, you need a hierarchical list view. The other thing that could be helpful is a spotlight/stacks mashup where you could begin typing the file you're looking for to liveupdate the stack view.

Yo SJ, PLEASEEE fix this!!

]]> <![CDATA[Our Unabridged Apple OS X Leopard Test Notes (24 Hours and Counting...)]]> Been testing Leopard for a lil bit now, only complaint is about the folders. They look flat and seem kind of a step back.

I do like that I can turn off overscan on the monitor setting which makes it fit my 720p TV (DVI to HDMI) perfectly. Really happy about that because it really looks great.

TimeMachine is doing its first ever back up of 48GB of my MacMini and that is just chunking away.

I agree... I've been very anxious to have A2DP support (been using it with my phone) and it's great having it on the laptop now. Finally!

Still... as cool as Leopard is.. that's just it... cool. For some reason, I feel much less amazed with it than I did with previous versions of OS X upgrades, but I like it just the same.

Also... another cool feature I just noticed while typing this... you can resize text boxes on webpages in Safari. I just re-sized this one. That's another cool feature that is actually kinda nice when typing long comments. Try it.

Didn't you notice the big fat icons where the artwork is supposed to be?

I haven't seen any outrage on the internets about it, though, so either they don't, or people are OK with Apple implementing DRM.

]]> <![CDATA[Our Unabridged Apple OS X Leopard Test Notes (24 Hours and Counting...)]]> So, has anyone found out yet if Leopard now natively supports play-back of Blu-Ray media?

I'm really looking forward to this as I'm planning on purchasing a new Mac very soon, and I am also planning on upgrading said Mac to have an internal Blu-Ray drive.

]]> <![CDATA[Our Unabridged Apple OS X Leopard Test Notes (24 Hours and Counting...)]]> Time Machine used to work to an airport disk, but doesn't any longer. Anybody know why? My theory is they disabled it because it would saturate your wireless network connection during backup. I turned it off for that reason in the pre-release.
