I did a clean install on my iMac and my MacBook. I agreed with most of the good things people are saying about Leopard (e.g., super-fast Spotlight, better networking, QuickLook). Some problems though that made me downgrade back to Tiger (at least …

i'm pretty sure it does still have rosetta, but I haven't actually tried office 2004 on it. i'd be very surprised if it didn't work... i'm sure someone who's tried it in leopard will answer you soon though.

I'm using it and it does seem faster than Tiger, especially booting, dashboard, and spotlight... all three noticeably faster to me. Actually those are the only things where I notice a speed difference, and I haven't noticed anything being slower in…

With Leopard coming out soon and its "Time Machine" backup feature, which will automatically back up your hard drive to an external drive (if you want it to), you might want to consider using that external as your backup drive rather than as overflo…

Mine freezes occasionally (one or two times a week), but I use it day and night and I also have Leopard on it now, so that might be a part of it. Anyway, in spite of that, I love it. It's very fast and beautiful looking and I love the new keyboard…

I hope so... part of me still thinks that might be the case although another (bigger) part thinks they've been so diverted by the iPhone that what we see with Leopard now is what we'll get. Not that that's so bad... I think OS X is so polished alre…

Don't know if this will matter to you or not, but after much debate (somewhere on this forum, I think), the consensus seems to be that you can't edit appointments in iCal on the iPod touch... only view them. This kind of destroys my whim of getting…

Man, that sounds seriously buggered. Sorry but I've never seen that before... have you tried deleting Firefox & reinstalling?

Thank you both. That does a lot to alleviate my concerns.

The transparent menu bar seems to me like an attempt to introduce transparency into Leopard because Vista has a translucent toolbar in Aero. However, the Vista translucent toolbar is more attractive to me and the translucency doesn't reduce the usa…

10.4.11 is impossible. The next update would have to be 10.4.10.1. Quote: Originally Posted by Clive At Five "Presumably final update" to Tiger? I'm going to step out on a limb and say there will be a 10.4.11. Why? Because Apple always rele…

I'm afraid I don't agree that this isn't a bug. Setting the default widget to Cupertino, Calif. when you live in San Francisco isn't a bug because they're both in the Bay area and they at least used a place that was near you. Setting the default t…
