So are 300-plus new features worth $158? That answer will vary, because no single user will ever take advantage of all -- or maybe even half -- of those 300 features. But given the impressive value of Time Machine and improvements to existing programs such as iCal, iChat, Mail, and the Finder, most active Mac users will find more than enough reasons to consider that upgrade cost money well spent. Despite a few interface missteps, particularly when it comes to the menu bar and the Dock, Leopard is an upgrade that roars.

SLED, with all of its Microsoft integration, isn't a Linux for free software purists. But it is a desktop Linux distro that makes a fine drop-in replacement for Windows at most offices. Why would you want to do that? Because while there are some things that Windows users take for granted, such as being locked into Microsoft's document formats, there are security threats, such as Conficker, that could destroy a business. If you want Windows compatibility, but you'd prefer a cheaper and more stable and secure alternative, then SLED 11 is the desktop operating system for you.

Citrix has long been the leader in the terminal services/remote desktop game. Its ICA protocol is heads and shoulders above alternatives, and the manageability of its solutions continues to be strong. By coupling this existing technology with VDI, Citrix aims for the best of both worlds, delivering streaming and hosted applications to a small-footprint desktop VM. XenServer still lags the capabilities of the VMware ESX hypervisor, but XenDesktop does not require XenServer to function and will play nice with VMware and even Microsoft Hyper-V.

Citrix XenApp 5 Feature Pack 2, the latest version of Citrix's flagship application virtualization product, offers a host of new features to ease both user and administrative interactions. Simply put, Citrix XenApp is arguably the best example of centralized desktop computing available.

Tiger is a giant leap over its predecessor, Panther. In my tests, the operating system seemed stable and relatively bug-free, and performance was excellent on both my new test system and even my ageing Powerbook.

VMware Fusion is a solid virtualisation package for OS X that builds on VMware's long experience but offers a native Mac look and feel. Support for SMP and 64-bit operating systems make it the top choice for power users. Support for Windows is strong, but some switchers will find the sparse set of GUI-based management tools a turn-off.

Many people, for years now, have predicted the rise of Linux on the desktop. Feisty Fawn is exactly the sort of polished, friendly release that is necessary to make the dream a reality.

Windows Vista Service Pack 1 RC is more internal evolution than user-experience revolution, but it points to a brighter future for Microsoft's latest consumer operating system.

If this first taste is any indication, Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron is shaping up to be a worthy upgrade for existing users and a good jumping-on point for new ones. Wubi, in particular, makes it ideal for anyone who has hesitated to give Linux a try before now. Look for the final version to be available in April.

Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope brings minor cosmetic and UI enhancements to this easy-to-use desktop distribution. On the downside, installation was marred by some missteps, and hardware support remains mixed. Highlights include new versions of OpenOffice.org and Gnome, as well as a new desktop notification feature.

Xandros seems to have set out to be pragmatic about Windows, seeking not to replace it, but to work within its monopoly. Not every Linuxite has taken to that strategy in recent times. But what does a Linux distro change if it's never actually used by anyone other than a techie or software activist? Presto's strength is that it could be used by the everyday user to pep up an ageing Windows system past its best, or just to get faster booting than with a sclerotic Vista machine. It's not really a business-oriented system, but this looks to us like a bargain.
