They've actually gotten away from the live feeds in their last few big events. Just too many people watching to make it stable. I miss watching the feeds, but in the past few years, they've gotten harder and harder to watch.
10:31 am can run 32 bit apps side by side with 64 bit - no emulation, no translation
full support, top to bottom
10:31 am did in a completely 32 bit compatible way
10:31 am have a fully native 64 bit UI carbon app
10:31 am in leopard - giant leap forward - extend support all the way through UI framework into applications
10:30 am previously at unix layer
10:30 am 1) support for 64 bit applications

They really shouldn't have made that Dell comparison earlier, because looking at Dell's site right now (I had to), there's a machine with the same or very similar spec, but bigger hard drive, for $500 less, and I'm not even looking that hard for the best deal. (I assume that Apple comes with a monitor too, because if it doesn't, that's far worse still).
edit - well, it's not a Xeon, if that makes the difference..
But the same speed in a Core Duo..Kung Fu Jedi

:lol
Looks like they're putting non half-assed backup/restore point shit into Leopard. So they spend 10 minutes slagging on MS and one of the first features they show off is inspired by them
That Dell has 2 cores less than the Mac Pro.

Musashi Wins!
FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
They ship these packages with monitors? Stores down.
10:35 am ever had time where you work on a doc and you do a save as and overwrote the wrong one?
10:35 am coolest part - and reason we call it that - whole new way of backing up files
10:35 am backup to HD, or server
10:35 am can restore everything, or just one file at a time
10:34 am can be right where you were when the HD drive
10:34 am automatically backs up mac
you change a file, it automatically backs up
photos, music, documents, files folder, everything
then you can restore everything
10:32 am 2) Time machine

That was exactly what I was thinking. But they're right: OSX needs built in backup functionality.

And isn't a Xeon Processor. HUGE difference there.
Time Machine = Windows Restore Points.
Not the feature you need to be touting. Overdue, but XP has had that for some time. Pretty cool that it can be backed up to a server though.
Edit: Ok, the abilitiy to review exactly what changes were made throught time Timeline viewer thingy sounds pretty sweet.
10:39 am file previews without going through full restore
10:38 am devs are impressed
10:38 am finder windows "warping" forward
10:38 am can go back a day - or two days
10:38 am timeline on right-hand side
10:37 am visual representation of moving through time
10:37 am finder windows move through timeline on the side of the machine through time - very cool to watch
10:37 am instantly back
10:37 am with time machine, you can get those files back by entering a date or time
Ok, for just a back-up thing, Time Machine sounds VERY cool.

No. Sorry. Windows restore ha NEVER, EVER worked for me- especially when I REALLY needed it. I must have tried it 7-8 times on different pc configurations, not ONCE was it successful- which is why I would NEVER depend on it. Either it ****s everything up, or it says it cannot do the restore. If apple manages an OSX level backup system that I can rely on, that is awesome.

Agreed. I've never had issues with the Restore Points, but I know plenty of people have had problems with them. And Time Machine sounds like it blows what Windows does right out of the water. Can't wait to see more details about this upon hearing a little more about it.

I'm still missing the WHY I should switch from Tiger to Leopard when it comes out.
Boot Camp as standard in Leopard
and Virtual Desktops:
10:47 am built in to leopard
10:47 am spaces lets me create collections of apps for different tasks that's intuitive
10:46 am can drag info from one desktop to the other
10:46 am "very cool"
10:46 am Steve showing how to use multiple desktops for different jobs - working on web pages, etc. create different spaces for different clusters of apps to work together
10:44 am "space"
10:44 am 4) Virtual Desktops

jesus this Leopard thing has been lame so far... better have "one more thing" for all those MS jokes
I'm guessing if Boot Camp is in, there will be no Apple-supported virtualization.
Any guesses on One More Thing? It's almost time. I don't think it's going to be iPods or iPhones or whatever.
Really. The one new new feature they announce is backup? It sounds like a nice version of backup, but still. YOU SHOWED MS.

Christ, they just got going. So far they've shown off Time Machine, which sounds pretty nice, and they've moved on to Boot Camp, and Virtual Desktops.

I totally agree. LOL at how they call MS copycats and then copy the system restore points from Windows and the Network Drive instant search from Google Desktop search.
