So, How's your Leopard experience?

iMacs, for the uninitiated, use laptop CPU's. That's why they are so thin. Full-size HD though.

I've been running Leopard on my MacBook Pro since release day, no problems here, and it gave my older Mac a little speed boost! I do wish Time Machine would back up to any network shares, instead of just Mac ones.

Didn't the recent update fix this?

No, there is a terminal "hack" that lets Time Machine see unsupported drives, but I wont trust my backup to anything that may be unsupported.

Not a single problem absolutely love leopard. I was skeptical coming from tiger. But it literally blows leopard out of the water.

You had to use a Mac at work?

Wow, I haven't heard good news like this in over 15 years!

Leopard is quite nice, especially Spaces and Time Machine which have been life savers for me, since I constantly work with multiple windows. My G4 does run a little slower though, but not enough to cry about it.

pcmag seems to like the 10.5.2 update. a lot. Apple OS X 10.5.2 (Leopard) - Reviews by PC Magazine

my favorite features are the small ones - quicklook, the mosaic screensaver, and the dedicated downloads folder (though i made my own in every past version).

i do not like the removal of the bluetooth phone pairing w/address book that allowed you to send text messages from your phone via your computer...there's a company that sells a hack to enable this, but i don't know why apple removed it. still, 10.5.2 fixed a lot of silly things that apple got wrong in the original release.

10.5.2 is great.. it shows apple listens to its feedback... gone are the transluscent menu bars!

My iBook G4 takes longer to boot, but otherwise I love the changes. The spacebar preview works amazingly for just about any image or video file.
