Snow Leopard, which will be out in September, will make the current Mac OS X Leopard better, according to Apple. When it was first announced last year, CEO Steve Jobs said that it would give the storage and memory space back to the user. According to the Apple website, Snow Leopard will take up less than half the disk space of Leopard, which means that users can put in more photos, songs, even videos. Apple also claims a 45% faster installation; and checks for compatibility.
In the Dock area, the Stacks folder as been moved there, and the Dock itself is less annoying. The Grand Central Dispatch feature will take advantage of the processor's cores; while the 64-bit computing will speed up tasks, while staying compatible with 32-bit applications. Open CL technology utilizes graphic computing in a whole new way. Quick Time X will come with a new version of Quick Time Player. And the Exchange support feature has built-in support for Microsoft Exchange Server.
