WWDC reaction: Mac OS X "Panther"
The next version of Mac OS X, "Panther" (version 10.3) will ship late this year and offer a number of nice new features. But is it a MAJOR update, as Jobs claimed? No. Sadly, the company will charge its hapless users $130 for it nonetheless. That said, I can't wait to try it. Some of the more interesting new features include an improved Finder with colored labels, better Windows network browsing, Exposé window organization, iChat AV, FileVault file encryption, an improved Mail.app with new thread views, Fast User Switching (stolen from XP, but nicer looking of course), better integration with iDisk, and a significantly faster Preview application (the current version is a dog). Grade: A.
