My upgrade to Leopard (archive and install) went very smoothly. Lots of things to explore and overall I like what I am finding.

The feature I most appreciate is the speed and responsiveness of the new Finder. I tried opening a folder with 3500 raw photo images in it which used to cause the old Finder to choke every time and now it just opens very quickly with no problem.

I am running an 8 core Mac Pro with a 16 gigs of RAM

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the icons bigger in the new Finder window sidebar?

That probably has more to do with it. :)

Leopard is faster is some things on my G4, and slower at others.

And, they should also have an option for a 2D or 3D dock, regardless of whether it's on the bottom or sides. Opinions are so mixed about the dock, I think they must give an option. It's like only have the option of buying the black MacBook if you reside on the second floor.
