what do you all think of this review? I'm pretty stoked about the release since I'm hoping to get a Macbook this spring, and since I'll likely get to see it on Dad's Macbook and G5 before too long.
It looks pretty nice to me. What's with that file stack on the dock? I didn't quite get the point of that.

I would say that 1) it isn't a review at all and that it hardly even qualifies as a preview, and 2) who cares? He starts off saying it is "user focused" and then talks about the underlying framework. Uh... what? Not sure about the Mac average user, but when my dad sat down at his new Vista box he never said "This is nice, but how is the .NET framework support?" Rolling Eyes

if you drag a folder onto the dock as a shortcut, you can hold your mouse over it and see the contents of the folder without having to actually open it in the finder.

Yes, but my point is that you can do everything the Mac framework does without the framework this guy is heaping praises upon. It may make things easier for developers, but from an average user point of view, they won't care at all.
