I upgraded (as usual) as soon as 10.5 was released. It has worked great. I am not surprised at some of the negative press because why write a rant about everything working well??? One thing about the internet that we need to keep in mind is that it is an equal opportunity medium- everyone gets to have their say whenever they want. Thus, some things appear magnified because everyone with any kind of problem gets to post it with no censorship (as it should be). Of course, if you believe EVERYTHING you read on the internet then I do own a controlling interest in a New York City bridge that I am willing to part with…

It’s easy to reconcile. Every operating system release sucks, and every maintenance release is pathetic. There, happy now?

About that bridge, are you sure it’s not the one I already own? We’ve got to compare our deeds.

Peace,
Gene

I also adopted Leopard on day one. Installed it on my Dual 2.5 G5 and my experience…a few very small glitches here and there but on the whole a seamless and good experience. On the whole I have noticed a fantastic speed increase in booting and also with 3d apps such as Cinema 4d (probably down to the enhanced OpenGL support).

This upgrade was nowhere near as traumatic as upgrading OS 6 to 7, 7 to 8 or 8 to 9. Well done Apple!
