Mac OS X Although Apple is marketing Mac OS X Snow Leopard as an operating system update with "no new features," under the hood improvements will actually translate into a slew of new enhancements, five of which are described herein.

Those article reports the correct application size if you used the default OS X install and installed support for all 18 languages.

I thought about that right after I posted. I always strip out every language but US English when I install OS X; even though I speak Spanish and a little Japanese, I don't work in those languages or any of the others so they are unnecessary.

I still think it's a sensationalist article though. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if their "Snow Leopard" figures are actually just plain Leopard with the languages removed.
