Snow Leopard ships early, cheap
Apple started shipping the new 64-bit version of OS X 10.6 (aka Snow Leopard).
There are few new features — this version streamlines the code (saves GBs in file space compared to 10.5) and speeds up the Mac. It also breaks a few apps, according to the Snow Leopard compatibility list, but most up-to-date programs seem likely to work. Adobe CS 2 and 3 suites do not, and Pogue says some part of CS 4 may not. The upgrade costs $30 for users of Leopard (10.5), which is amazing. I ordered the software (it should arrive Friday) but don’t think I will actually upgrade for a while — I’ll wait at least until the first update just to hedge my bets. __________________ [SIZE=2][COLOR=LemonChiffon]::[/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] |
