Apple today released a new seed of their upcoming Leopard operating system, build 9A283. It requires a fresh installation, so upgrades aren't possible at the moment. There are also a host of known issues.

New features:

- New Parental Controls preference pane allows you to limit access to the
system and apps, adjust content filters and enforce curfews
- iCal has significant UI changes
- VoiceOver screen reader includes 3D audio cues to indicate the location of
items on the screen.
- Live Previews in the Print Panel
- Preview now supports basic editing
- Audio via the headphone/lineout jack plays at the normal volume again
- Input Method Frameworks have been updated
- Groups and subgroups in AddressBook can be restored with Time Machine  

Spotlight
- Quick Look supports PDF, HTML, Web Archives, Text, QuickTime
movies and sound
- Time Machine snapshots are searchable through Spotlight

iChat
- Spotlight Previews can be streamed in iChat Theater mode
- Replace Background video effect now available

Real cool eh? It would be excelent if they were using some king of holophonic sound emulation.

Works better with eyes closed and stereo headphones.
