Today we all know is Leopard launched today, due to my new travel plans to go to GA on Saturday I may not be doing the live install of Leopard tonight. But to follow the Leopard launch I’ll be at the Apple Retail Store in Crabtree Valley Mall, Raleigh, NC today around 3:30pm, I’ll be posting pictures with my iPhone and uploading to flickr and blogging with Twitter.
So to keep up with all the action just point your browser to my http://waynesutton.tumblr.com/ site for updates.

Despite Apple’s efforts to restrict seeding to select individuals, it appears that the final build of Leopard has made its way outside of Apple. One individual who installed the final version of Leopard as an upgrade to his iMac posted his experience.
The Mac OS X upgrade took 30 minutes and these were his first impressions:
• All my applications and settings were retained
• Time Machine asked me on the first time I started in leopard, which of my five external Hard Drives should be used for backups. I didn’t have to configure anything else
• When I started Mail for the first time, it had to upgrade the mail database. After that, Mail is blazing fast!
• I told Mail to import my RSS Feeds from Safari but that didn’t work!
• Reading RSS in Mail is nice to have
• Tasks in Mail appear even if completed. That might be a bit distracting for some people
• Mail is FAST! Seeing is believing!
• Finder: Well, the first time it ran, it hanged! After killing the process, I was amazed by the speed and coverflow!
• Quick View: COOL - GREAT FEATURE
• Safari is blazing fast!
• .mac has the option to synchronize settings and Dock items
• Stacks: I am not impressed. I like the downloads stack though. I had to manually change the path in Mail and Safari though!
• Spaces: I created 4 Spaces and I find it a very cool feature, especially the live ala expose preview
• Applications start instantly, especially iLife and iWork!
• iCal is much better. There is an inline editor and an event drop box now
• Contacts is more or less the same
• iTunes seems much faster than before
Google’s Gmail has just integrated IMAP. However, its only appearing in a select accounts.
Ok, after I just started fowarding my gmail to my hosted imap account for iPhone iMap now gmail has iMap, why for some reason I think this has something to do with Leopard.
In 3 days Leopard will be sold at the Apple store in Crabtree Valley Mall. I’m going to install it either at the Apple store or Panera Bread at 7:00pm or 7:30pm. Join me as I will be installing Leopard onsite, testing out the new features and sync it with my 1.0.2 iPhone for the first time.
