âWith Leopard, Appleâs operating system widens its lead aesthetically and technologically,â states Ed Baig . Baig âmigrated to Leopardâ from Tiger âwithout pain on a MacBook laptop and my own iMac desktop; thereâs mercifully none of the software driver and other hassles associated with a Windows operating system upgrade.â Calling Leopard âone cool cat,â Baig praises Time Machine with its automatic backup and effortless file retrieval; the new videoconferencing features in iChat Theater; stationery, notes and To Do options in Mail; Cover Flow, Spaces, Stacks, and the ability to âhighlight and copy any portion of a Web page inside the Safari browser and turn it into a live Dashboard widget.â

When Steve Jobs unleashes Mac OS X Leopard on Friday, Mac fans and others considering an Apple computer for the first time will have questions. Is the new Leopard operating system worth the $129 upgrade price? Is it the reason to splurge for a new Mac? Long before Leopard pounced onto the scene, I rated OS X superior to Windows for most consumers. With Leopard, Apple's operating system widens its lead aesthetically and technologically. Whether the sixth major release of OS X in as many years puts a dent in Microsoft's dominant market share is another matter entirely.

An idea I've been thinking about for a while and looking for an opportunity to do is a "flash conference" along the lines of the flash mobs that were so popular a few years ago.  Here's how it would work... Some event happens that focuses the attention of bloggers, one where there's a lot of ground to cover and at least two or three different ways to view it, one where the combined expertise of 5 or 10 bloggers would make a big difference.  The event would last at most 3 hours, would be webcast live, and be edited into a 1 hour program within 24 hours.  As many of us are waiting for delivery of Leopard, the new Mac OS, it seems that this may be an opportunity for such a conference. We'd have to find a facility in San Francisco that could house this. There would need to be room for 20 or 30 people, and it must also have decent networking. Then the question of who would we turn to for expert opinions. Some ideas... 1. A Mac software developer. 2. A gadget blogger (Engadget, Gizmodo, etc). 3. A creative artist (it is a Mac after all). 4. ??? 5. ??? This is meant to be an instant idea. I have asked the question on Twitter and your comments are welcome here as well. Update: Loic Le Meur has volunteered the offices of his SF startup to host the flash conference. Cooool.
