i just installed it on my macbook. pretty sweet…. but /tiny/ lagging here and there, and lots of fan noise. it’s quiet now, but i fear it will start up again if i run anything, lol.

Yeah, I just installed it yesterday and it is very sleek. Just like you said, no big upgrades but cool minor features that are really worthy.

bb, I don’t think you can use your iPod as Time Machine backup. I’ve read that in a review. You can only use it on external drives connected to a firewire or a USB or on a computer with shared volume. However, someone posted a work around on how to use it on an airport base station hard drive.

Mark, the interface probably didn’t get much upgrade but internally the leopard is amazing, its so much better than Tiger.
you wouldn’t appreciate it as a normal user but as a computer scientist the evolution is amazing.

i guess it should. Sometimes they remove stuff to keep the download size down so I don’t know if the same applies here.

yeah so does Tiger. I don’t have any links to show you the “how to” steps but i dont think it should be too difficult to find.

very easy, u click “continue” like twice in the beginning and it then installs everything and reboots in less than an hour. very easy.

I will be getting my upgrade soon, was the install easy peasy? I thought i will just get the new osx and breath some life into my power book, instead of buying a new one just yet. Macs last longer than PC’s

you don’t have to upgrade, its not compulsory, its a just an option.

Tiger works fine with me, why would I upgrade?

I’ll stay with my mac for another 2 years and then buy a new one with the latest os x

u can get the single user pack and it would work on all three macs. Apple isn’t anal like Microsoft with security checks and computer activations and shit.
