    You just bought that Mini didn't you? And you still had to buy the upgrade?

    We just got a few that all had Leopard update discs inside with the Tiger discs.

    Spend you some brain.

      I just upgraded my Macbook Pro.

      Stacks are ok. Especially when I download something and it's right there in the dock.

      I'm still trying to figure out how to take advantage of quick look.

      The new iTunes like Album browser works well in smaller directories.

      Had a hard time setting up Apache for local testing. Installing GD took me 2 hours. Can't connect with my Window shares because the Window shares password has a "@" in it and even with the URI escape its not working.

      Connecting to the web via Bluetooth and my Blackberry 8800 is a work in progress....in Tiger it was super simple.

      The bugs will be worked out eventually so I'm not worried.

              i really liked the new file browsing. Took me a minute to figure out that i had to enable that kinda viewing but made it super simple since i do alot of stuff with pictures i was able to see a larger version of the picture without opening it.

                        Bob, I was having the same sort of pbs - everything was slow, buggy, quitting.
                        So, I decided to go th long route - a fresh reinstall of everything. Everything is super fast, not buggy etc

                        If you do that, just DONT select the option to format the disk as case sensitive NFS+ - no adobe products are compatible and they won't install....

                        For coding work - hit me up on andy // borkedcoder // com

                              reinstalled the OS and then all the programs again or just the programs?
