Spotlight is a fast, as-you-type system-wide search found in Mac OS X 10.4. It is one of the biggest new features of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. It is important as it changes how the user reacts with files on the Mac. It is a significant alternative to the window metaphor of the 1980s.

Haxie
A haxie is a "hack" or system modification designed to customise Mac OS X. The term was first devised by Unsanity. To some extents, it resembles a combination of both a system extension and a control panel (in Classic Mac OS speak). Haxies are often customised by means of System Preferences panels.
