Phill Ryu, a man who must have some sort of direct neural interface with the Mac shareware community, has posted a list of a licatio which could very likely be killed off by features of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard which were a ounced yesterday. Seasoned OS X users will have immediately seen parallels between many of the new Leopard features and software that has been available for some time. Most obviously, aces are just fancy names for virtual deskto something that can be easily achieved by VirtueDeskto , DesktopManager, and VirtualDesktop Pro. The new a lication launching features of otlight take aim at popular a licatio such as LaunchBar, Butler, and my personal favorite of OS X a licatio , Quicksilver. With iChat, ta kill off Chax, live presentatio kill off ShowMacster, and backgrounds kill of ChatFX.
Be sure to click through to the original post for all the other a now lining up at the unemployment window, and to see what the shareware developers themselves have to say about the a ouncements.
Update: Buddy'o'mine and BarCamp mastermind Chris Me ina has a similar post.
