How do you get it to hide on startup?

Nevermind found it!

Doesn't do anything for Mail though

Currently loving Spaces - although I now want Dashboard, Expose AND Spaces on my Mighty Mouse but can only have 2 of them

I got Leopard on my iMac without using a 2nd machine by the way.. if anyone is interested

Anyone got a fix for Leopard not picking up Windows machines? Was fine in Tiger.

Edit: I can still connect to smb://machinename/share but they aren't appearing in Finder to browse.

It's always been a bit random in the betas, but when one of my machine can't see windows servers none of them could so i'm not sure what the problem was.

Does anyone know if there is a way of having the defult application folder icon in the dock? It just comes up with all the icons piled up?

^ That's the single most annoying 10.5 "feature". I had the Apps directory on my dock so I could right-click it and use it like the Start menu to launch apps from. Now I can't

I never knew when you right clicked that happened!! Ideal

Anyone know how to make the dock clear? The cleardock plugin thing that most people used with Tiger no longer works

Where did you get that wallpaper? Looks cool!

 

[Caged]

It comes with it.

Longest. Install. Ever.

Did anyone else think that? Took so long to check the DVD then the actual install dragged on as well. I think even Windows installs faster!

Initial impressions are good, everything seems much smoother and prettier I definitely prefer the changes to Finder. Just installing things like Office and iLife at the moment. I'm not going to post any screenies they will be the same as the rest!

 

[Hate]

Its alright I guess, everything looks a little less chubby.

The features are nothing special thou, def not worth the money

You could skip that bit

I'm actually liking the new dock, I had doubts about it, but now it looks awesome!

Well what a sight down at the Trafford Centre, dunno if anyone from OcUK was there.

Massive que, Apple staff outside with shutters down. Then decided to give a countdown to which everyone cheered!

I didn't rush home actually, only just installed it to be honest.

*Looks* amazing, but I haven't touched everything yet.

Was an exciting feeling (for a geek) to be there tonight.

Will reply with a more opinionated view tomorrow after some heavy usage!

 

[J1234]

I think the box it comes in is one of the best parts!

How do you get the details under the folder/hdd etc?

I accidently have them on and dont want them on.
