Have yet to get it, but downloaded Quictime 7 and the HD trailers are amazing. The h.264 codec is the next big thing.

Haven't tried out the HD trailers yet, but I will. Dashboard kicks ass, as does Spotlight. Tiger seems to have kicked Podcast Tuner in the ass, though to be fair it's barely out of alpha. I'm sure I'll run into other programs that aren't quite optimized.

I might just be an idiot, but Automator seems to only let you do workflows for programs Apple has given the thumbs up to.

LOved most of the new Hitchhiker's. It was really cool to see stuff I'd read when I was 12 years old up on the big screen, and the fact an entire sequence revolved around filling out forms was sheer genius.

I don't think most of the audience got the joke, though, and I'll bet HHGTTG gets two good weeks then slinks away.

Have you tried out the RSS Visualizer Screen Saver? Pretty cool stuff, there is also a haxie to run it as your desktop image.

Oh sure, bask in your damned HD. *sigh* Guess I'll wait for the windows version. Quicktime 7 exceeds my current mac specs...

Chuck D: Don't take that HD for granted. Some of us are moving backward in time. (SX ---> DV). Oh yah. Lov'n it.
