The new Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is Apple’s first major operating system upgrade since Tiger more than two years ago. 
The changes include more than 300 new features which, while not earth-shattering, further streamline the experience of using a Mac.
One of the awesome new features of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is the Boot camp feature only available for Mac OS X 10.5 users. Boot camp for Mac lets you run windows on you Mac! Just like my earlier post “Wubi ( Installing Ubuntu)” you can run two operating systems at once!
Another cool feature is the Elegant backup via Time Machine! This offers powerful navigation tweaks; novel workspace customization through Spaces’ virtual desktops; integration with Web data and applications; Cover Flow visualizes file browsing; iChat Theater offers green-screen backgrounds and lets users access each others’ desktops; Bootcamp included.
Thanks,
Brian

I’ve already upgraded my Macbook to Leopard and so far it’s working very well. The upgrade went easily and the tools are pretty cool. The ones I liked most are the new Finder that imports the Cover Flow function from iTunes and the new iChat which allows the insertion of images and films. If you haven’t upgraded yet, there are some interesting videos I’ve found that show Leopard’s new tools and effects:
