Thanks for the tip for quick look. After playing with Leopard for a few hours I have to say I'm pretty optimistic. Spaces is now my favourite function. Sometimes it's a bit choppy though, at times it's easy to forget I'm running on 2GB of RAM.…

Took about 1:30 hours to install, but did so smoothly... didn't even have to bother backing anything up (did an upgrade). Only one question... do you always have to press cmd Y to do quick look?

Hey, For iPhoto, you should be able to keep all of your metadata so long as you copy the whole "package". I'm not sure though, maybe someone can confirm this. I think album artwork is actually embedded into the tracks, so that should be okay. …

... but, I personally don't mind either interface. Having been with my Mac for only a few months, I'm not as 'bored' (for lack of a better word) with Aqua as I can imagine some may be. I can see why people want change from Aqua, but it's still holds…

I'd hardly say that the particular article reeks of anti Mac sentiment, but he's not exactly a big fan right bout now. He does raise the point that the internet is a really exciting platform right now, instead of being excited about Windows Vista, I…

But with the new iWork, I'm not if I'll even need Office 2008. Perhaps a case of too little, too late? Or maybe just too late \

It works well for some programs and sometimes not at all for others. Which mac are you going for? I'm sure it would work better for a Mac with a bigger screen (in managing real screen estate and such), but on my 13" Macbook, the button is redunda…

I was playing around with this feature yesterday actually. I don't think you can edit sidebar icons separately from the ones in the Finder (like music, movies, pictures etc) because they are both meant to be the same folder, just in different 'place…

Spotlight is a life saver. Especially for the files where it searches inside them, it's quite quick - haven't used the Windows Vista search though. For folders and the like it searches comments as well, I'd like a better emphasis on metadata - that …

Why all the fuss over Packard Bell? Both Acer and their rival Lenovo are gunning for them (acquiring Gateway is merely a strategic move for PB on Acers' part), but I honestly don't know what is so good about them. Shortly after acquiring one, I foun…

Thanks for the help, as I mentioned, I have iPhoto running nice and quickly now, with both photos and movies there. I thought I'd also let you know how my OS X experience has been, after just a week of frustration, enjoyment and those "light bulb mo…

I've managed to temporarily solve the problem, iPhoto is running quicker now. I'm going to upgrade to '08 versions of iLife (and iWork) soon so hopefully Ireland is right and my new iPhoto will be quite speedy...at least it was when I tried it out i…

If these guys want to compete with the iPod, they've got to match the iPod + iTunes combo and atleast make it as seamless an experience. Microsoft are a mess here, why they created the Zune Marketplace (and that rip-off of iTunes) is beyond me - esp…

Buy now if you need to use it straight away, and wait if you can bear to is the general consensus. If you can wait then you'll be saving on Leopard ofcourse, and there might even be an upgrade to the macbook by the time leopard comes out. As with…
