Will this build add tethering to the iPhone?
Will it add a front-facing camera to the iPad?
iPhone has tethering, it depends on your carrier

Obsolete? LOL. Even the very first Mac Pro it is still a beast and software still need to use it to max.
Really? I never got to use spotlight in tiger so I can't make the comparison but I have never had any problems with the spotlight in 10.5. It seems to find things pretty well for me, certainly much much better and faster than Windows search ever did.
Can you say how it was better in Tiger? I am curious.
Snow Leopard is my first Mac OS X. I didn't have tha chance to use Tiger or Leopard, but on Snow Leopard it works well for me and for the way I use OS it's great. I use it as application launcher a lot. I use it for calculations. I use it even for music or videos, because sometimes it's faster to type song name into Spotlight. The problem is not how feature work, the problem is the user which thinks it should only work the way he imagined. There are two solutions for this problem, actually 3:
1. Stop using it.
2. Use Tiger.
3. Stop crying like a baby.
I have yet to see you happy about something on this site. Again, either stop crying around or start making some shanges in your life, because you starting to reminf me one type of people.
Tigerr had better metadata handling. You could also change how spotlight organised items.
I never used it so I didn't care, but it obviously was a real workflow enhancement to eidorian.
i wasn't happy with Leopard until 10.5.5... and i started at 10.5.2 which was really buggy especially with the Time Capsule... Snow Leopard's Finder is a resource hogger... it forces itself to prioritise its own tasks above everyone else's (e.g. VLC/Safari) for example... if Finder totally freezes, nothing else is controllable and all the tasks you perform that don't work... all happen when Finder unfreezes itself if i don't get really pissed off and just turn the damn plug off.... FIX THEM APPLE - Windows 7 on my MBA is awesome.... shame i can't install in on my iMac... no space
That depends on what you do with your Mac (Pro) because any single tread application will run faster on higher clock rates, which happens to suit Intel's turbo feature best. Enter the new quad core iMac's.
BTW: The fastest computer running OS X is no longer a real Apple Mac Pro but a hack with the new Intel i7 980X inside, which we pushed over the 5GHz barrier today. Too bad we can't OC our Mac's anymore, which I did with my 2008 Mac Pro for two years without any hiccups.
I sorry to say the anecdotal evidence shows this has become the trend at Apple. To me this explains why the Mac Book & Mac Book Pros are so late for a processor update. Sometimes I think Apple is going to only a yearly update of the Mac Book pros now. So no new processor updates until WWDC.

Apple is single-threaded, it seems.
Errm, why would you be on an Apple support forum unless you were having problems? Of course it's biased.Buddy the survey report is by Apple Support Forum....Got it .... I guess u should try looking aroundSupport Forum [If U heard abt it] It is not biased son
User participation is much higher when people care about the issue, which is always a lot more when things are going wrong.I've never come across any real world cases of problems with SL, just people on forums. I'd bet on the vast majority of users having a smooth transition.
Its awesome that Apple Consumer Electronics remembers they still have a buggy OS that needs fixing.
That's fine for you, but I use spotlight for everything, opening programs, doing arithmetic, looking up words, opening documents, etc.
It's really useful.
Haha oh wow.
I seriously believe we've said that at work every update since Tiger.
With the way Apple manages OS X you're dragged forward with new hardware without regard to your workflow.
It's something you never expected Apple to change since it worked so well. It really makes you reconsider if you're going to buy another Mac or not.
Samba has been broken ever since Fedora 10/Ubuntu 9.04
Samba is just... broken. Ive had to delay upgrading the OS on the Linux clusters at work because Networking in Unix is so broken.
---
Like I said I cant really relate to your spotlight woes. I know its "Worse" but it doesnt effect me.
I'd claim that it's been broken since at least Red Hat 4.1, when
I first tried to set up a Linux file server for Windows systems.
Even when it mostly worked - the annoying things like Samba's
inability to handle 32,766 character long UNICODE file names has
been a problem. (unable to handle UNICODE *and* unable to
handle full length file names)
...going on 13 years, at least.
10.6.3
The iPad is going to require iTunes support. Since I highly doubt the current version, 9.0, includes this, 9.1 will be released on April 3rd.
I would also put my money on Apple requiring that iTunes 9.1 run on either 10.4.11, 10.5.8, or 10.6.3 ( or that '7' thing).
Would love to see 10.6.3 released this week along with new MBPs.
Also, Apple doesn't like to roll out new products close to one another. We won't see an updated MBP '10 the week before or after April 3. If it's soon, they'll unveil it this tuesday. If not, it won't be out until the end of April. On the other hand, could this be why they chose April 3? So there would be enough time between this week's launch of new MBPs and the iPad?

Samba was working fine until some of the last Fedora 10 updates. No extra configuration needed. It just ... worked. I doesnt even work on Fedora 12/9.10/SuSE11.2. (Im particularily supprised at Conincal and Novell. RedHat is known for breaking stuff for the sake of bleeding edge.)
Its like Linux devs, once they have a Stable build of a product they just have to kill the next update.
Like the KDE4 problems were udnerstandable because it was completely new code and a new coding API. But a point update shouldnt kill X or soemthing. Oh and ATi and nVidia still dont fully support the latest versions of X.
I believe Samba 4 is fixing most of the Unicode/Filename problems. But the Dev said they were going to fix the code they have now.
I am sorry to say there is still no fixes for SAMBA and Windows Domain logging on problem where is ignores all small letters forcing us to use only capital letters to log onto Windows server 2003/2007 domains.
