Today, Apple is unleashing Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard onto the world. It's already available to people in
Australia and
New Zealand (you liking it,
Kaiwai?), and Europe and the US will follow later today. There's an article on
what's new for Ruby developers, while others want to figure out
what Leopard means to the 'enterprise' (I love those silly business terms).
Update by AS: My copy of
Leopard was slated for a 10AM delivery, but didn't arrive. I called FedEx and a CSR told me that an internal memo was just released; Apple has apparently waved the shipping deadline for all packages today and requested delivery be rescheduled at the
end of the business day.
Update 2 by AS: Ok, we've received our copy. How about you other US'ers?

I was thinking about your comment about bad Java support out of the box. I started thinking which operating system that includes Java.
Windows don't include any version of Java, so far I know.
Most Linux distributions does not include Java out of the box, because legal reason. This will change very quickly now when Java has been GPL:ed
Mac OSX includes Java out of the box, perhaps not the latest version.
It is fairly easy to install the latest Java (JRE and JVM) on all the above mentioned systems.
So I'm a bit curious about which operating systems you are running now, so may I humbly ask what OS you are running?
