It looks pretty cool. I'm going to wait til I hear some things about it before I upgrade to it... Maybe for Christmas.

maybe I should break my hard-drive again and see if they put that on the new one. I had my hard-drive replaced a year and a half ago and they installed 10.4 at no cost. (I was running 10.3 at the time and I don't bother with the cat names it gets confusing.)

It looks really nice to me, but I am going to wait a while before I upgrade to it.
$130 is too much for me right now to spend on my laptop. |

I've read around a little on some mac forums...
It seems like a lot of people are having installation problems. Something about a blue screen (sounds like a common windows issue). |

That look very cool, Im still using version 10.3
 . I think I might get it for myself as a Christmas present... Too bad I won't be able to use Boot Camp because I'm on my G4.

some pretty cool changes, spaces is sweet, they taught safari some new tricks, etc etc.
No huge changes other then bootcamp and a few developer-oriented application updates, but i'm satisfied still have some exploring to do though

unfortunately john childs, running OS X in a VM is not supported apart from qemu (hardware emulator), but thats not really feasible due to lack of performance. You could use grub/bootcamp to multi-boot though...
I'm really surprised people arent shooting jobs after his ipod and iphones scandal. (iphone was the overpricing + locking) and ipod was locking all ipods into itunes. To the person suggesting to download it, your just not very smart now are you? As far as the new OS goes, it seems to me a little pointless, i mean yeah its pretty but for $130 i expect better than pretty. As for gutsy gibson + compiz... I'd hope you were using compiz fusion by now on GG, and lets be honest, Gnome looks like a bag of sh*t compared the X on the macs. Compiz fusion is buggy crashes often and looks awesome but takes a massive performance hit and requires a powerfull GFX card. Look at mac laptops.... Here's me sounding pro mac. Scary. |

So those of you who have installed it haven't encountered any problems with it yet?
