Should a non-Power User buy Leopard or not?
Charles Kinney Walker | Oct 18 2007
I just jumped back on the Mac bandwagon this summer picking up a MacBook Pro… It’s been a long time since I’ve owned a Mac, to be honest, they just cost too much to consider owning during my post undergrad years, and I managed to get by with crappy Dell laptops for the better part of 10+ years. My previous Macs were a Plus (with a whopping 20 meg external hd) and then a IIsi I overclocked with the crystal swap trick… My point here is OS X 10.4 is my first mac OS since 7.0… I’m only now sort of picking up the tricks for getting the most out of Tiger… Is Leopard really that amazing that I should pre-order it? I just have been out of the mac fold for so long that I just don’t know enough about Leopard to know whether or not it’s worth it for a user in my current position… Any thoughts??? Thanks in advance for your time. 5 Comments

 it's pretty...Submitted by sisyphea on October 23, 2007 - 5:00am.
I just checked out the demo on the apple website… Leopard is just gorgeous. The 3-d graphic scroll through… so pretty…. ! I’d like to see it in action on my mac (will it be agonizingly slow and suck every last bit of processing power?) I got my current Mac and OSX when it was hot off the shelf, and had the double whammy of switch-over issues from PC, plus NOTHING ran on OSX - all the cute Mac stuff I was dying to try - the freebie apps and screensavers and stuff - nothing had caught up yet. So good advice to wait - thanks for that, MEP. I’ll wait and watch. Hang off till the new year for my new laptop, I think. Oh and the new Mail app looks a lot like Entourage, with its funky note and reminder feature. Nice. Helen » POSTED IN:
