          Dear Apple: Standardize on, or KILL brushed metal. The multi-widget-set-from-hell look is so Windows 9x.. actually, Windows 3.1.

                Standardise the interface I completely agree! So sloppy.
                But still, brushed metal is better than the frikkin horrible eye-straining lines-from-hell
                and that horrible anti-aliasing. It's better than what it was, but it's still trippy

                      ...I still can't believe I sold off my wonderful iMac, and got a Dell.. I still feel so lost, nearly two months later.

                        The unified look will become the standard. Check out iTunes and mail.app or the ichat screenshots from leopard.

                          Nope, the mixed metaphors are still there....
                          the system level apps, control panel, time machine, spaces etc have the grey feel, while applications have a mix of brushed metal and the system level grey - look at mail.app.... it still has the same gui as control panel et al.

                          That is not the mac GUI.

                          Don't get me wrong, I love it, but christ - the mac OS was built on consistancy and ease of use. The origal Apple Human Interface Guidelines have (quite literally) been rewritten.

                                    It is a must see for Mac users as well as those who are thinking of switching.
                                    Even if you don't think you'd want a Mac, watch it, you would have to love what you see.

                                          I bought the MacBook back in May and i'm kind of torn between upgrading 10.4.7 to Leopard seeing as how i'm still learning this OS plus I really don't see too many improvements that would warrant a price tag of 150 bucks.

                                          Not sure what to do because I really don't want to pirate a copy the OS. If you haven't made the switch to OS X then you should. The only reason I need to boot into Windows (thanks to Boot Camp) is to play Rise of Nations.

                                            I switched less than a month ago and already sold off my PC. No need for it or Windows anymore; OS X rocks.

                                              I'm fairly certain it's a carbon app from the ground up. Carbon is c++ compiled to binary; cocoa is a runtime compile. Guess which is faster?

                                                          Some of those screenshots are photoshops. Apple hasn't yet shown us the design of the new Finder.

                                                          I also agree that apple should get rid of the various interface styles. As a developer it's frustrating.

                                                              Looks to me like the Finder has been replaced (or a large part of its functions) with Spotlight a much more powerful Spotlight.

                                                              I highly recommend watching the video.
