I'm looking forward to 802.1X bug fixes, as they seem to be affecting my ability to log into my campus's wireless network. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. How annoying.
Got a tip for us?

There is a way
You can always join ADC (Apple Developer Connection) if this is so important to you. The cheapest option that MAY get you the seed is $500/year. (One reason I didn't continue as a Select (the $500 level) member is that even at that level, some things were only available to the uber-members (aka Premier, $3500 I think))
They don't test you to see if you are truly a developer, you could be just an enthusiastic hobbyist. The application is as easy as buying a book on Amazon.
(WARNING: Double negative ahead.) So, there is not NO legal way to get the developer seed of 10.5.1, but it is probably more expensive than most of us are willing to pay to get a few weeks' head start on their fellow Mac users. Also, seeds may not be perfect and developers are equipped to find, isolate, and handle bugs. An ordinary user may not be able to handle the rough draft that a seed may represent.

I want SMS messaging out of Address Book back. I'm not impressed by features being deleted after I've paid £100+ for an upgrade.
No, they've been working on this for longer than two weeks. At least since the code freeze for the GM release.
does anyone know if such an upgrade could potentially have updated bootcamp related drivers or improvements (to fix various windows hardware problems), or would that have to come as a separate fix?
heaven forbid!
Oh heaven forbid some bugs in the initial release of the company's biggest OS. The point is that the issues get resolved rather quickly, unlike some other companies...
It is estimated that for every 1000 lines of code, there is 1 bug in someone's code. The fact that operatig systems run as well as they do is a tribute to the developers and debuggers.
Quit whining.

I am having random problems with "data underrun" in my startup disk after updating QT and iTunes with Leopard...the same problems that have cause Finder freezes in 10.4.10 for some people...are any of you having a similar issue?
Something tells me that Time Machine will not work via Airdisk until buggy firmware for aeBS (yes emphasis on BS) is fixed. The airdisk has never worked perfectly for me, on any of the firmware revisions.
a BIG problem they need to fix is when saving or transferring files to a network drive, if the transfer gets interrupted the file gets deleted! I read about this 2 nights ago and had it happen this morning on a paper I was working on. Luckily I'm extremely anal and save my files in literally 4 places (idisk, usb airdisk, hard drive, and flash drive).
Front Row and DVD Player
What about the fact that I'm getting Japanese links in iTunes in Front Row, and DVD menus are always scrambled for me. Not so in Tiger.

back to my mac fix?
I don't see anything about a fix for back to my mac issues. They posted something on apple.com about fixing it soon. I can only get it to work maybe 20 percent of the time.

Nothing about Time Machine, Disk Utility, Airport, Air Disk, file moving, graphic rendering and opaque menubar bugs?
Pfff! And I was so impatient to update to 10.5.1 :/

Glad to see I'm not the only one with the weird spaces issue where application switching doesn't switch to the right spaces.
I noticed that Spotlight was indexing more often, but thus far have not really experienced anything drastic. As I use a FW drive for Time Machine, airdisk is not really on my list of priorities either. The file delete during an interrupted transfer is what bothers me the most, as a transfer could involve many gigs of data.
Overall, Leopard's operation for me has been nice and easy, and I love it. Good to see fixes coming so soon though.

Let's let them fix real problems before adding additional functionality!
Time Machine not working with Air Disk is a real problem if you bought an Airport Extreme and an external hard drive specifically for Time Machine, ready for the Leopard launch...
Receiving was buggy and you were limited to sending 160 characters, I'm not surprised they shelved it.
Claim an 802.XX fix, but since installing Leopard, My hotline client speeds have gone from 1Mb - 1.5Mb , down to 80Kb - 200Kb , but when I reboot to my 10.4 partition, speeds are back up to normal, and thats just the tip of the network speed bugs
Hope it comes out soon. Typically apple does this on almost every operating system after a few weeks
