In Leopard, iDisk syncing creates a sparse disk image for the sync instead of a standard read/write image. This has the huge advantage that your iDisk sync file doesn’t have to be 10 GB in size, but is instead only as large as it needs to be in order to hold all the files on your iDisk. Very nice.

What makes this ad awesome is not the true-to-life irony, because the idea is hardly innovative, but rather the excellent execution. Reminds me a bit of that excellent Nutri-Grain spec commercial. Quick delivery, good actors, hit all the high notes. Love it.
