No it's not, and I have a small list of things I was thinking of venting about on here, quirks to downright stupid things about leopard (mainly I think) and some are just OSX general gripes. Of course trying to resolve them on the internet one comes across something you don't come across in the PC world - a bunch of stupid cunts trying to say it's a feature or you shouldn't be doing that anyway or any fucking thing to defend their holy apple operating system.

But as entertaining as it would be for me, I think people are sick of me bitching about that stuff, even if it is apple that gets it this time and not MS.

One thing though, is none of them are bugs, they are just stuuuipid things that apple doesn't seem to want to change, y'know, like how the one-button mouse was around for way fucking too long.

But yeah, that is a pretty serious bug in snow leopard. Some holy jobs mac tard though I can already imagine will be saying "well how often to you do that anyway and why would you" (even though I imagine it would be a common senario in some situations).

heh have you read about what happened to sidekick users? They lost like the whole virtual network in a server crash which seems really odd since any company worth its salt would have a constant back up or three of any server containing user data.

I assume the user base is mainly geeky teenage boys anyway but its still a major fark up.

This event will be of real concern to both Google and Microsoft who are both looking to convince the world that keeping your data in a 'cloud' is a good idea.

Speaking of the Sidekick thing, here's some speculation as to what happened:

Why because I don't closely follow the user base of some incredibly geeky looking mobile device I would never buy in a million years. lol.

Sorry I have a life, Next please.

Difference between fanboys and smart people like me:

Fanboys = "OMG NEW OSX I NEED TO UPDATE RIGHT AWAY!!!1"

People like me = "I've used Windows for far too long to just mindlessly jump to a new OS without waiting for the n00bs to do it first and tell me what's wrong with it"

when apple was about to release snowleopard, adobe announced (with mildly poor wording granted) that it was not supporting CS3 on snowleopard. Jesus, the fuss lots of dicks kicked up. It wasn't saying CS3 doesn't work on snowleopard (it does), adobe was just saying "we're not going to put our resources (currently building CS5) into pulling up old code and patching it just so you can run out and buy the latest OSX.

Well if you dont know anything about it why did you feel the need to comment on it? Your life consists of commenting on things you know nothing about?

I just installed it on my work computer on friday..


so we'll see.

I installed it the day I got it, which was the day it came out.

But then again, if I lost my computer it wouldn't be that big of a deal and I really wanted Exchange integration.

It has somehow managed to erase my version of Quicktime Pro.. and replaces it with a shitty Quicktime Player which is useless to me.


wtf

The new quicktime icon really annoys me for some reason.

Too "futuristic" I think.
