TidBITS released a nice compendium of some of the nicest new features of Snow Leopard that aren't immedately obvious, including:

• More reliable disk ejection: you now see the disk's icon dim after selecting "Eject," and you get an explanation of why when Mac OS X won't eject your disk. There's also now a "Force Eject" option (use at your own risk, of course)
• Location, location, location: Snow Leopard can determine your time zone from information provided by your Wi-Fi hotspot - in your Date & Time preferences, choose Time Zone, and tick Set Time Zone Automatically
• Wake on Network Access: if your MAc is a server, it will continue broadcating Bonjour information even when asleep, and will be woken by requests over AirPort or Ethernet
• Expose Shortcuts: With all windows visible in Expose, you can press Command-1 to arrange the windows by name or Command-2 to arrange them by application. Pressing the Tab key will cycle through all the running applications. Press the spacebar while pointing at a window to expand it
• Descriptive Screenshot filenames: Instead of "Picture 1," you now get "Screen shot 2009-09-04 at 11.26.49 AM"

There's More on Apple's Snow Leopard Enhancements and Refinements page.

I Read About The Disk Eject Thing (I Think On Apple's Site). No Too Hidden. I Just Noticed The Screen Shot Thing Myself When Watching Ty's iPhone Help's iPhone Giveaway When I Was Taking Screenshots During The "Show".

10.6 keeps sounding like a device pack more and more, and you apple wackos keep buying it. But you gotta see apples genius in it. Get a customer base of morons, keep features out of your product so you can put them it later in a "new version" and keep the morons paying.

i love the jealousy of windows users, just never ceases to entertain me to the utmost fullest. fork up the extra cash you cheapos, and buy a real machine, that's reliable too. its not like snow leopard is being sold for a lot of money. thirty bucks for an upgrade, big woop. its just paving a road for the future. and if you're a hardcore windows fan, then why the hell are you on an apple forum? and reading about apple products and/or using apple products like the iPhone? it's because apple puts out great products that ol' microsoft can't even begin to create.

I agree. I know that $299 laptop looks appealing but save your allowance and get a real machine
