Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard: first review

Product Code: MB427ZA

Apple's latest operating system for the Apple Mac, Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard represents evolution rather than revolution.

Apple has made a nip here and tuck there, adding some features, enhancing others and leaving well alone where no change is necessary. And Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard starts from a decent vantage point. If you've never used Mac OS X take it from us: it's stable, beautiful and simple to use. The temptation to compare and contrast with Windows Vista has never been more compelling.
