Snow Leopard screen shots

German site Apfeltalk has posted some screen shots of the upcoming Mac OS 10.6 a.k.a. “Snow Leopard.” Since the new version of the OS contains mostly under-the-hood features, there isn’t a bunch to see though. One cool thing is Safari 4.0’s “Save as Web Application” feature which creates a double-clickable run-time application from any Web page – almost like iPhone’s “Save to home screen” feature. Also visible in the shots are Javascipt benchmarks and Exchange integration in Address Book.

Update: The shots appear to have been removed. OrchardSpy has posted some additional screen shots. Googling easily finds mirrors too.

Update 2: AppleInsider has posted a story about five undisclosed Snow Leopard features.

Biography

Jason D. O'Grady

Jason D. O'Grady developed an affinity for Apple computers after using the original Lisa, and this affinity turned into a bona-fide obsession when he got the original 128 KB Macintosh in 1984.

He started writing one of the first Web sites about Apple (O'Grady's PowerPage) in 1995 and is considered to be one of the fathers of blogging. He has been a frequent speaker at the Macworld Expo conference and a member of the conference faculty. He also co-founded the first dedicated PowerBook User Group (PPUG) in the United States.

After winning a major legal battle with Apple in 2006, he set the precedent that independent journalists are entitled to the same protections under the First Amendment as members of the mainstream media.

O'Grady is the author of The Nexus One Pocket Guide, The Droid Pocket Guide, The Google Phone Pocket Guide, and The Garmin nuvi Pocket Guide (Peachpit Press), the author of Corporations That Changed the World: Apple Inc. (Greenwood Press), and a contributor to The Mac Bible (Peachpit Press). In addition, he has contributed to numerous Mac publications over the years, including MacWEEK, Macworld, and MacPower (Japan).

When he's not writing about Apple for ZDNet at The Apple Core, he enjoys spending time with his family in New Jersey.

I clicked on the screen shots link. And was taken to a web site, in German. But I couldn't find any snow leopard screen shots.

Where are the real screen shots?! I read the German (very slowly) and did see the tiny Snow Leopard DVD and desktop screen (which looks dead on like Leopard). But I didn't see anything about feature screen shots or anything about Apple legal needing to remove such images.
