Less than 10 days until Panther (MacOS/X 10.3) comes out!

In it, you will find (among many other things) several very cool
features:

Exposé -- A way to quickly see and pick-from ALL of your
windows, both on- and off-screen.


• iChat AV -- Built-in video conferencing using the well-established
  "chat" motif.
  
  
• Multiple simultaneous log-ons with very fast switching among
  the logged-on users.
  
  
• File Vault -- Files stored with built-in 128-bit encryption. This
  could be handy when John Ashcroft knocks on your door.
  
  
• Postcript printer sharing -- Serve out your locally-connected
  printers (even inkjet raster devices) as network PostScript printers.
  (This will let our SunStations print to our HP color inkjet!)
  
  
• Handwriting recognition in more languages (adding French
  and German).
  
  

Someday, even Windows may have these technologies!
