Guided tour of Leopard Server hits the high points

Leopard ServerComputerworld’s Yuval Kossovsky wants to share with you his enthusiasm for Leopard Server. That’s right: server. None of this client rigmarole for Yuval. Server is where it’s at. Yuval gives us a run down of what to expect in the next iteration of the Mac’s server OS.

The marquee features? Seamless support for both 32-bit and 64-bit software and drivers, and adaptive firewall that will block connections after a threshold is reached, Time Machine (which it shares with OS X client), iCal Server, WikiServer, and a handful of others.

So, how about it, readers: are you waiting, on the edge of your seat, for OS X Server? Or is this merely an appetizer for the OS X client news to come?
