Leopard 10.5.2 update adds DVD sharing, better Stacks, translucent Menu bar and remote backup!
- DVD/CD Sharing, as seen on the new Macbook Air
- I can't believe I didn't think to test this: Time Machine can also use a disk connected to your Airport Extreme as a backup location, hooray!
Yes, the Extreme is named Express. Force of habit of calling it that for years, sorry. - Time Machine drop down in menubar
- Hey, look - Time Machine can backup to a network drive again!
- Translucent Menu bar option in Desktop Preferences
- Better Stacks options, including List, Folder and Grid views
'Folder' shows the icon as, well, a Folder and 'Stack' shows the most recent documents icon.
This one is for commenter #14...
The 10.5.2 release of Leopard is expected to be released at any time.

I dont like the Translucent Menubar. Dont understand why apple not include it on Leopard 10.5 . Butt better late then never.
January 18th, 2008 at 6:52 am
Look forward to this!
But I *love* the translucent menu bar, still highly visible text (maybe not for old people though, but then OS X fonts are probably too small anyway), and aesthetically blends better into the desktop.

Looks good. I hope they will release it soon.

Rich: the translucent menu bar doesn't show up at all on older machines. Are you using an older Mac? Could it be that the preference setting doesn't show at all in those cases?

Nice. I just want the damn thing to come out already – I've got my fingers crossed that they fixed the dodgy WiFi access that my Macbook Pro has…. oh, yeah, it'd be nice if I didn't have to re-type the first letter after not using the keyboard for a few seconds too.
Check-boxes for the translucent menu bar be damned… I just want a usable machine!

Hi, Jan. Speak for yourself. At 76 I may well have better eyesight than you do, and have no problem with even smaller fonts.
The trouble with a transparent menu bar is that I put up my own Desktop pictures, some of which have dark areas under the menu bar. Try reading a black font on a black background. That's when a more opaque menu bar is appreciated.
January 22nd, 2008 at 7:22 pm
is there a screenshot when the menubar is not translucent?

The trouble with a transparent menu bar is that I put up my own Desktop pictures, some of which have dark areas under the menu bar. Try reading a black font on a black background. That’s when a more opaque menu bar is appreciated.
I just tried dark photos, light photos, solid colours, black, white, grey, greens, blues…
It really didn't seem to make any difference what colour the photo was or what was on the desktop… Maybe there is a combination that doesn't work with the transparent menubar, but I haven't found it yet…
Having said that, I guess it's good we will have the option to turn that off, I hope they give us the option to remove the 3D dock. I already have that turned off, but it would be nice if that was “official” too…

I wish I could set the translucency of various Finder components somewhat similar to adjusting the properties of WindowzXP themes.
Better yet I’d like to see working continuously updated themes available for OSX, especially a LCARS theme.
