That's pretty much how I saw it. "Hmm. That looks pretty awesome. I doubt I'd actually use that, but I bet that'll win some people over to Mac." Now if they just make a pink iPod touch, they'll corner the market.

That said, the new Finder in Leopard is really nice. Icons are at a much higher resolution, you can flip through pages of documents inside the finder, and in general it is a lot more versatile in the way it sorts and manages files and folders. Coverflow, though, is still a gimmick that can be handy to use for some things, but not something you'd use everyday.
