I have multiple hard drives from the 90's that are still kicking.
While that may be true, that doesn't mean that having everything backed up should be a scape goat for Apple to excuse the data loss bug.
Got a tip for us?

I was just telling one of my friends how when the Software Update pop up, it's a holiday on the macforums. LOL
Ok it seems the problem was with hulu desktop. Looks like 10.6.2 fixed the remote issues (restored control of the remote to the "current" application), but changed the way the remote works, so now hulu desktop doesn't work with the remote at all.
Mine works, but only in iTunes and FrontRow. It used to work in VLC, EyeTV, Plex, and others but would launch iTunes every time you pressed play. Now it doesn't do anything at all in those programs. Maybe it is fixed on Apple's end and we have to wait for the VLC and others to update their software...
And where did I say that?
Please quote me.
I replied to your post saying have fun backing up terabytes and terabytes of data, with a comment saying have fun when your hard drive dies.
Which if you actually read the rest of this thread you would've realized what that followed into before that comment.
Oh, you are an ungrateful whiner, it shows 3%-5% improvements
It's okay. All my OpenGL, DirectX and CUDA are all on Windows 7 since they have so much better performance vs SL right now.
People like you are the reason I was a Windows user for 20 years. I'm really looking forward to my new I7 27" imac arriving, but fanboys put me off apple as a company so much
Had to do this also. I wonder if it's exclusively a bug with Audio Hijack Pro. It selected the Soundflower output for me after restarting. I figured I just forgot to switch it back at some point last night. That's a pretty strange bug either way.
Other than that, the death of growlmail (again), and the incredibly long install time, I haven't had any other issues.
Installing Now Pretty fast download tonight! hopefully this will bring on change to Safari and it's Legginess within flash player

You know, I have a few from the 90s as well. I'm glad you've had good luck, but when one fails I just hope you'll remember to come back and post that and point out how you were victim to false security and spreading misinformation.
Everything Works Again!
Everything that was wrong is working again!
Safari is loading pages that froze in 10.6.1. I'm SO happy. I literally "Force Quit" Safari 10-20 times per day!
Adobe CS4 seems to be working better again. InDesign CS4 would crash every time I tried to export a PDF. So happy to have that back!

Wow, it's amazing how fast you people jump to conclusions. When did I ever say they weren't backed up? I simply said they were still working. I never said they would last FOREVER.
You're right. Doesn't work with Spotify anymore either. By the way: Did Quicktime Player just get its own giant "Front Row"-like progress indicator, or have I missed that before ? It is shown whenever you press one of the Apple Remote's playback control buttons while being in QT Player's full-screen mode

My GPU is finally back to comfortable temperatures on my iMac. Up until today, my GPU diode temperature averaged at about 155°F, and it is now at 128°F.

No, you didn't just say they were still working, what you said is:
So which is it? They don't randomly die or they won't last forever?
That's just silly.
Yeah, some people are annoying. But cutting off one's nose to spite one's face?
As much time as we spend on computers these days, the only rational decision is to use what works for you and ignore the idiots out there. Rapid fanbois are not the result of any company's actions. There are plenty of real things to dislike about the way any particular company does business.
Still, I think the difference varies between users. The usage pattern and environments are quite different. I won't reject a company just because someone said something good/bad about.
I have near 19 years with windows, though I just recently moved my major developments to mac. I like mac just because there is less hassle about crashing and it is the only laptop I had in years (my first one was in 95, and possible had 10) that is you open the lid and it shows login in seconds.
Well, good luck with the I7, I wish I still have some money lying around to buy one. Ok then, let me rephrase that for you. They don't just randomly die until good time. Is that better for you?
Fortunately, Remote Buddy seems to handling 10.6.2 without issues. I moved to that a while back to deal with the AR/Hulu issues.
