 Mac OS X Leopard September 10, 2008
2 out of 5 found this review helpful
I ordered and paid for Mac OS X Leopard Version 10.5.4.
I received Mac OS X Leopard Version 10.5.1.
Amizon screwed me as to the updated version which I find to be usable.
I am on dial-up so it takes forever to get up-dated.

10.5 for myself and many was a disaster; 10.5.1/2 also. The usual problems plus too much eye candy and feature bloat.
Quicklook? Spaces? a second calculator in Widgets?! Dont be adding marginally -or non uselfull things just to be able to hype. I want an enhanced (with th basics and then a few extras. Not a boatload of them) stable OS.
Each time I went back to 10.4.11-stability speed-AND I COULD REPAIR PERMISSIONS IN FIFTEEN SECONDS, not FIFTEEN MINUTES. Now that Applejack is out you can see why: all kinds of bootstrap errors untill the system shrugs and moves another way. The word "EMERGENCY"in there makes you wonder why they still leave this unfixed.
I dread having to repair permissions if I add a system app. And error are listed for a reason: They are warning you of something is WRONG. APPLEs response of "ignore it" is why the whole thing is a mess
The whole thing is a mess. Today 10.5.5 should be out-maybe that will be worth it
Gotta Take Away a Star, Because of a Bad Up Grade September 8, 2008

I'm sure a bazillion and one people have weighed in on Leopard, so my voice probably will be drowned out by the sea of others, but I've got something to say and I'm going to say it here. I've been a Mac person, longer than most, back before System 10, back before the fantastic upgrade to System 7, back, back, back. I remember my Mac Portable that ran for twenty hours, cost seven thousand dollars and had a whopping ten gig hard drive. I've loved every improvement and most went okay.
But I did a routine system upgrade from 10.5.3 to 10.5.4 and lost my sound on my iMac. Couldn't get it back. Zapped my Pram, no dice, tried to reinstall the system, but got no joy. In the end I had to take my machine into my local dealer and would have had to pay eighty bucks, but I got lucky because I'd purchased the extended Apple Warranty.
That was three months ago and I've been afraid to upgrade my MacBook as I don't want to spend eighty dollars, because it's not on warranty, but my husband told me I was being dumb and so I finally went ahead and upgraded with my fingers crossed and it went without a hitch, didn't lose my sound. So even though like all Mac systems, this is a five star system, I've gotta, just gotta take away a star because maybe the upgrade works fine now, but it didn't earlier.

 New OS Amazing August 24, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Late to the party, I wanted to make sure that Apple had ironed out the kinks in the latest OS update.
For the most part, the update works great for end-users. However, I run a mail and web server on a Mac Mini that I applied the upgrade to, and once again, all the configuration files for file sharing, Apache and Postfix were altered and no indication was given that they would have to be re-edited to work with the newer versions of the open source tools. It would be more "Apple like" of Apple to give upgraders some notice of this kind of change -- especially _before_ updating.
Yay - We Can Run Bootcamp! Hoorah! August 19, 2008

You can run XP, Linux, Unix, OS X all on one laptop. What's NOT to love?
Bootcamp comes with Leopard as a free addon... totally worth it!
