can't beat that. bloatware vista = $399 for ultimate is a ripoff in comparison and offers nowhere close to the stuff + stability that leopard will offer.

Second piece of software that I ever bought in my life so I'm not complaining. :lol:

Re: Leopard -- It's Official

did you buy the upgrade or the full installer ? OEMs were going for $199 on newegg, perhaps they dropped in price a tad

#927400Post 10 of 77

Re: Leopard -- It's Official

do try Kamal there are some problems with specific devices such as sound boards and video cards.

why don't you just try some Linux distro instead?

Works great for me. The only complaint that I have right now is the new Underworld. I know, it's unrelated but man what a disappointment. It's not bad but it's just okay. At least Orbital went out with a bang. These guys aren't even rolling around in their wheelchairs.
