Mac OS X Leopard is a remarkably great operating system. It has many innovative features has awesome security and an easy to use interface. But like all new things there are people that have a reason to complain. The following is just a few comments left on Apple’s forms:
S.Mayer:
Having spent the last two days in Apple’s discussion fourms reading the many problems Mac users have had when upgrading to Mac OS X 10.5, I am still very leery of installing it on my Power Book G4. I have never had such problems with Apple before
Dave Stone:
I hope Macworld can stop shilling for Apple long enough to acknowledge the disastrous consequences of Leopard. For all its great features.This OS wasn’t sufficiently tested.It has problems with permissions for which Apple was completely unprepared. Many printers will not function under Leopard. If you look at the discussions on Apple’s own site.you’ll see the huge range of problems and the discontent. Apple’s smug indifference to the problems has not helped. A little “Sorry, our bad” wouldn’t have hurt. Instead, Apple goes on spending money on advertising that the company should’ve spent on releasing a capable and well-tested system.
Hank Humphrey:
I’ll never again upgrade until an operating system has been out for a year. I bought Leopard and upgraded my20-inch iMac, my MacBook Pro, and my wife’s PowerBook G4, and I have had nothing but trouble. Mail got corrupted and I spent five hours on the phone with Apple to fix it. Then Mail wouldn’t open because of a permissions problem. Then Address Book didn’t work.Then Time Machine stalled.This is the worst piece of software Apple has ever put out.
Well it’s your call if you like Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard or no. Personally I like it.
