An Environmentally Friendly Keynote

WWDC 2007′s Keynote just ended. What many people may not know was that the keynote was part of Apple’s goal to become a greener company.

An example? Here’s the list of the “10 new Leopard features” from last year’s keynote:

  • 64 bit
  • Time Machine
  • “Complete Package” (Photo booth / Front Row / Boot Camp)
  • Spaces
  • Spotlight
  • Core Animation
  • Universal Access
  • Mail.app
  • Dashboard
  • iChat

This year, there was another list of 10 new features.

  • New Desktop
  • New Finder
  • Quick Look
  • 64 bit
  • Core Animation
  • Boot Camp
  • Spaces
  • Dashboard
  • iChat
  • Time Machine

Depending on your view (“Boot Camp” was a part of the “Complete Package” feature; Quick Look is/was a part of Time Machine), you’ll see that 60-80% of this year’s Leopard demo was recycled.

Who would’ve thought Apple would go green so quickly?
