Well, better start saving my money in order to buy Leopard, a better file system means that we continue to beat Windows in every possible way, lol. Now Windows users cannot complain about the ALREADY easy-to-use File system.

The current Finder is pretty good I think, but it can be improved on. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with.

I personally think it's too early for "real" information on Leopard's Finder. And that article just seems like guesswork to me. I mean: Of _course_ they're going to do something with the Finder. And _of course_ Spotlight will become better implemented (they can't NOT do it...). The soft factors he claims, have even been already claimed for Tiger (work with files like with songs in iTunes thing...) by Steve Jobs, so I, too, would guess he won't walk away from that.

I agree, that site couldn't look less authoritative.

It's mere conjecture.

Well, he _did_ have interesting information in the past, I give him that (was on this forum as a user, too, IIRC?), I'm merely looking at _this_ article now...

its a blog site- looks like its powered by wordpress etc. maybe they are looking for 'hits' as leopard will be the next big rumour...

although - it's more than likely a no brainer - but spotlight has such a wealth of underlying power / functionality that Apple could still tap into...the 2nd iteration of spotlight - good times.
