    This is definitely not worth mentioning, but I will anyways. Run Software Update in Leopard and you will find the first update for your brand-spanking-new OS, Login & Keychain Update 1.0. Or click here for a direct download.

    If you notice, I added "OS X Tiger" to my MacBook specs on my forum sig, to note that I'm stuck on Tiger until I raise enough cash to get Leopard :( :p.

    Sam is sucha BIG help on this forum it would be great if several posters could chip in and buy him a copy of Leopard. Don't look for me for the funds, my iMac tapped me out, it was just an idea but Sam's help at times is priceless. :)

    i don't think I can legitimately use Leopard as Adobe has not updated very important software that I must use, After Effects, etc.

    boo, Adobe, yeah Apple.

    Heh, for me, a copy of Leopard is exactly $69. Which is why I will be buying a copy instead of *****ing out Apple's support people. Not that they could do anything about it, but it would make me feel a bit better.

    This is why I don't see why people make such a fuss about Vista's bugs. Just look at Leopard. First patches for Vista came after two months after it's release (MSDN).

    I think people made a fuss about them because everyone knows Microsoft released the OS...um, I wouldn't say 'unfinished', but you know.

    Yeah, it's not so much the bugs, as the unfinished feel of Vista. That and that MS actually took two months to put out a patch. When a company releases a piece of software and immediately begins patching it like this(within a couple of hours) to me that more says that they're worried about what their customers say/think and are willing to accept the fact that it wasn't perfect the first go 'round. That's infinitely better than sticking your head in the ground and pretending like there's not a problem.

    It's way biased. Patching it very fast could also mean a rushed product with the intent of early fixing after the release (with deadline in mind, someone could rush it). Doesn't cut it for me. Either way, at least for Leopard people don't think about it.
