More Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard screenshots?

Another couple of Mac OS X 10.5 Pre-release Leopard screenshots have been posted online via Flickr.


These new screenshots (the shots we saw last week via Trinity Rubicon are now admitted fakes) show what’s supposed to be a new version of Safari with a sidebar of webpage thumbnails, some sort of accelerated bookmark menu button, a Boot Camp icon in the Mac menu bar, and a black address book icon in the Dock.

See them here.

  1. fake. note on the pic with safari that there are 2 hard drive icons, 1 says macintosh hd and the other says leopard. assuming he has on a separate drive, the leopard drive, he would have booted from that drive, and would have showed up above the other drive. drives are shown on the desktop in the order they booted.

  2. Lets pretend that these are real. If these were Leopard screenshots, I feel sorry for anyone waiting for this. This looks completely unchanged from Tiger. A couple of new menu bar icons and changed theme for some apps does not constitute a new OS version. This is just sad.

  3. AS OF 10.4.5 the Dock (yes the Dock) contacts the Apple Store.

    Install Little Snitch

    Force Quit the Dock.

    Activate Dashboard.

    Why? Who TF knows, but I ran the ip address it contacts and it takes me right to the front page of Apple.

  4. Did anyone notice that instead of a google search bar in the upper right hand corner of safari, there is now a “MacSearch” bar? An interesting idea. Apple getting into the search business?

    MDN Magic Word: taking
    Apple taking on Google

  5. I agree that they’re fake, but what really interests me is the dearth of Leopard rumors.

    As August approaches, things are going to heat up bigtime. And that also means that the expectations are going to grow.

    Leopard had better include time travel, or…

  6. Fakes – Apple is too sensitive to new users, and the two “+” buttons in Safari are very easily confusing. The “+” for adding the URL to the Dashboard is logical, but now the “+” all by itself (Add to Bookmarks) has no logic function. A person would ask “Add to what?”

    If Apple were to add an “Add to Dashboard” button, they would alter the icon for “Add to Bookmark”, perhaps making it look like the open book icon for editing bookmarks.

    Apple always moves forward in ease of use. The fake images make the user interface more confusing.
