Mac OS X Even though Snow Leopard is supposed to be all about tweaking and performance, AppleInsider claims to have some information regarding new features coming in Snow Leopard. They claim Apple is working on bringing Exchange support to iCal, Address Book, and Mail, a feature called ImageBoot, and - insert drum roll - a new Finder written in Cocoa. Testers also claim that other bundled applications are written in Cocoa. This isn't all that weird seeing Carbon doesn't come in a 64bit flavour.

Cocoa + Finder = Finder

Rewriting Finder in Cocoa isn't going to automagically make it better, like some people keep insisting. The only benefit from rewriting it would be the 64 bit support.

Let's hope they learn from their past mistakes and bring Finder into the 21st century.
