Why Leopard matters, plus more ZFS details
I can't assume that subscribers and visitors to Enterprise Mac necessarily follow my Ahead of the Curve blog. Pointing you toward other Mac-related content I've created saves me the effort of paraphrasing it for use here.
My recent column, "OS X Leopard: A beautiful upgrade" highlights Leopard as a turning point for Apple, Mac users, UNIX and the market as a whole. It's worth a read even if you've already decided to pop for Leopard, and even worth reading if you're sure you'll never touch a Mac. Leopard is an exemplar of user-focused design that doesn't obscure the underlying power of the OS.
My last Ahead of the Curve is a higher-altitude look at ZFS, a "why ZFS?" counterpart to the two-minute ZFS primer I've already written in Enterprise Mac.
