Been running Leopard on my 'book Pro for a little while now, and I barely have anything to complain about... Dreamweaver 8 tends to crash for no appearent reason, and CS2's Version Cue won't run(possibly due to intel?). Considering I went from Pather to Leopard(G4 Mac Mini), I'm a happy dragon.

It's free, open source, and you'll never need to put icons in your dock ever again. you can even control apps globally. For example, i can be in safari and i can change songs in itunes just by using a few key strokes. Not sure if you’ve heard of this, but Quicksilver is a cracked out version of Spotlight.

I've been using it for about 1 year and have no complaints. They just released an update (v. 1.5.5). It's definitely worth a try.

Unfortinatly whilst the clock speed may be the same, the flops won't be. Via has bee known to have flop count issues per clock cycle. (for those that don't know, a flop is an action performed during a clock cycle. GHz and MHz are measures of clock cycles per second. Low profile, as in power profile right?

Fortunately i have it hooked up to a 1920x1200 display most of the time so don't suffer the same desktop space issues ;) Really happy wit Leopard, yes it's evolutionary not revolutionary, but all those small improvements really add up for me. Main thing is i'm just really happy that a brand new OS performs so perfectly on a near four year old laptop :) Hey I’m running leopard on a 12″ powerbook too, which also has unintentionally become my only machine!

It's based on the Gecko engine, but is better integrated with OS-X. I upgraded my MacBook Pro over Thanksgiving and my wife's MacBook yesterday. The only problem we've encountered is that her X11 install had to be done as a separate run, no big deal there. FireFox needed an upgrade, but that was a known issue. It was reported that Adobe CS3 was problematic, but I haven't had any problems with Dreamweaver and Photoshop yet. My only real problem ticks me off. I was running a cheap Lexmark Z611 under both OS X and Windows, apparently they did not include it under 10.5! I've since downloaded an updated Lexmark set of printer drivers, but haven't tried it yet. A tech at the Apple store told me about Flock (www.flock.com).

Not to much difference really. And I don't understand how they justify paying how much for an update? Well I gotta say, Leopard is fun. Not to much difference really.
