Mac OS X Leopard: AirPort

The look of AirPort splash screen is much improved, compared to previous incarnations of Mac OS X. Unfortunately, as many has pointed out, Apple has yet to include the relative signal strength on the Wi-Fi scanner.

For more AirPort utilities, get:

Mac OS X Leopard has officially arrived, and there’s nothing really I want to write about right now. Thousands if not millions of other blogs out on the “inter-web” are talking about it. So that’s it about Mac OS X Leopard……. for now.

Some interesting notes:

• Many people were using the iPhone $100 Apple Store Credit to purchase Mac OS X Leopard.
• Many customers actually purchasing the Family Pack (5 user license).
• Steve Gibson of SpinRite (@GRC.com) and Security Now fame was spotted at Apple Store Fashion Island in Newport Beach, California. Good luck getting that T-Shirt, Mr. Gibson. Actually the funniest thing was that, someone in the line was saying that Gibson’s SpinRite was a piece of useless software that doesn’t do anything.
• Many customers who pre-ordered Leopard reported that their copies arrived before the 6:00 PM sale time.
• The first update available for Mac OS X Leopard is Apple Remote Desktop Client 3.2.1; assuming that it’s a clean install.

One more thing:

• During Mac OS X LEopard installation, the Airport is available and able to connect to Wireless Access Point. Picture will be added later, I have yet to reinstall all the apps on my MacBook Pro.
