See? This is exactly the type of post that pisses me off. "Everything works fine on my setup, so anyone who has a problem must be an idiot or a liar." F you dude. Read my other posts in this thread and the zillions of others like mine in other threads to see just how foolish a statement like that makes you look. Ooo, you're using 7 Macs on 2 different networks, well then that must mean that all the other hundreds of Mac models and zillions and zillions of different network setups must work the same as yours, so if you're able to get yours working fine then it means anyone else that's having a problem must be doing something wrong.

How offensive.

Hey, mine works just fine on my network of Macs too.

Maybe you don't know how to use your Mac?

Is that "upgrading" as in Over-the-top of Tiger, or upgrading as in "I blew Tiger away and put Leopard on a fresh disk?".

Because the Latter is what I did and I have nary a wireless problem to be seen.

I know a fresh install is the best route but hoestly since "upgrade" is the default option, that's what most people will doIf Apple is writing the installer properly I don't think it should matter is the user did an upgrade or freh install. If It is the default option, users should be able to expect the same stability etc.

Are you being serious? I don't think so lol. As far as I know NOTHING has been said anywhere about 10.6 or if it will even be 10.6 or OS 11 or what. I would think they would stick with 10.6 just because they have such a strong brand going with OS X.

OS X (10) is going to be hear for at the very least another 8-10 years.

New HP printer driver, FINALLY! I now can print and scan with my Leopard installed MacBook Pro!

Anyway, check out the Fixes at the bottom of the image. Hmmm, wonder what that means. Heh, heh. Point 2 must be coming soon, eh?

Come on, Apple! Get the .2 out!

Bloody typical.... I've just downloaded the 9.7 beta for Leopard from a mirror site because the HP site gives me a file not found. :(
 
Get Real!!!!

Seriously. Everyone here is acting like this is a whole new OS that is coming out and will completely rejuvenate your particular type of Mac. It's just an update. You will not be blown away. Repeat, you WILL NOT be blown away. You all need to just relax and ride it out. No sooner than 10.5.2 comes out than you'll all be speculating about what they should include in 10.5.3 and then the rumors will start and the merry-go-round continues. Grow up.

However the constantly changing page dimensions that annoy me to no end is always an issue on large pages. It has to do with the way Apple chose to render a page. Also the reload and stop button is a joke. It won't let you stop rendering a page until the page is complete, so what is the point.

I really like safari, especially now i use inquisitor, however it does suck that some webpages dont work properly. Isn't that more to do with the designers not writing pages for safari tho, rather than flaws in safari? For example hotmail only works in 'classic' mode, and it tells you that you would get full functionality using IE 6/7 or firefox... I just figured that was a little way of MS reminding how much macs sucked in comparison or something, and just supported firefox cause its so popular/ sizeable marketshare compared to safari?? A guy asked earlier wether the latest webkit fixed these types of issues and im curious.

Also, my stop/reload button works fine; it stops rendering exactly when i tell it to!

Did they fix the text-shadow bug? On Safari if you do a text shadow with an offset of -1px, it doesn't show up. You have to tell it to do -2px for it to show the 1px shadow. But then it looks all messed up on Safari for iPhone and Safari 3 for Tiger (it offsets 2px). Can anyone verify if this bug is fixed?

Did you file a bug with Apple (http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html)? Then you can check their website to see if your bug has been fixed.

I see the same basic performance on different machines that I own. Some were upgraded, some were clean installed, that doesn't seem to make a difference. What seems to make the difference are the websites that one visits. Some sites are fine some are not.

have you tried webkit, does it help or does it do the same thing.

Well aware of what a MAC is and what a RUMOR. This 10.5.2 stuff has gone past rumor stage and turned into thread full of obsessive maniacs. I like to read the threads as much as the next guy for often useful info pops up which is excellent. For the last 2 weeks it's just be a disgrace though. I'd hate to see how it's going to be by time it gets to 10.5.8 or .9.

Point i'm trying to make is it's an update. I can not remember the last time an updated got people so excited. Nor can i remember when an update changed anyones life by any meaningful margin.

Normally I'd agree, but 10.5.2 is different in that it's actually bringing new features to the table.
 
can i open links in a new tab without holding down a button? and allow popups on certain sites?

those two things are pretty much what's holding me back from dropping firefox (along with the odd "this browser is not supported" error).

This has been fixed in WebKit, but I can't verify that the fix will be in Safari 3.1; it probably will be.
 
I still don't have a computer capable of running Leopard. (iBook G3) However, this summer that will all change. Until then, I will be stoked about one thing in this update: getElementsByClassName hell yeah!
