Apple are being cheeky.

I just installed Leopard on my Mac Book Pro, waiting to see how all the shit I have installed in /opt and /usr/local would survive before taking the actual leap with my Dual G5, which I still use for a bunch of development stuff that I don’t want to break. Yet.

So far so good. The under-the-hood features are actually great, and I pretty much enjoy the tabs in terminal. About damn time. I have yet to see if special keys work by default without me hacking it up. Oh and dtrace has a really fruity front-end in the developper tools. Fairly awesome if you ask me.

Anyways, the point is, I was finding Coverflow amusing for 3 whole seconds before switching back to the usual view, and decided to browse the network. By the way, this now actually works now. So, if you pay attention to the actual icon used for Windows machines on the network…

PC Server icon

Now that’s fairly ballsy. Not too professional, but I chuckled nonetheless.
