I don't feel much of a speed increase.. It even gets very laggy when copying files from and to an external HD
Got a tip for us?

Dont know what's wrong with ur computer by I'm copying about 100gigs to my external drive and also making whole backup to time machine and all is going fine - I think almost same speed before I started - so I have to say, when I was running 10.5.x It were see some lags but now Im totally satisfied with speed..
I find the "Marble" theme extremely ugly. I hope they keep the Aqua theme, it really looks good.
I don't like this new HUD black theme (whether or not this is called "marble"), but I don't like Tiger's Aqua either (that's too old fashioned). Leopard's "unified" theme is just right =)
I mean this kind of appearance:
Yeah I agree that's hideous. Its interesting when I watched leopard videos while using Tiger I was so impressed and what I had felt clunky and old.
I'm starting to feel that way with leopard. Even though its not any different than before I saw all this SL stuff.... Weird how that works.
Ugh. Thought I made that video private. Ah well. *goes to do so*
I was actually wrong. There were still leftover components when I uninstalled, so it actually does not support .wmv without Flip4Mac.
YES! Every time I click on the "Help" menu it crashes. If firefox was recently opened (or crashed and restarted) the menu works with no problems, but after surfing for a bit, it'll crash every single time. This never happened with the nightly builds either, as I would click "help" --> "check for updates" frequently.
no more bad batery condition
Yea, my bad battery condition went away and I appear to now have the same battery life that I did in Leopard.

Native WMV support in SL? What? Where? Tell me more... WMV with DRM support would make me a very happy person indeed. In Denmark we have a lot of great web services/sites that require WMV/DRM (fx. YouSee webTV, TDC Play, TV2, nutv.dk and to some extent DR1).
The lack of real WMV/DRM on Mac is currently the best argument for not making friends switch...
possible enhancement
I noticed in the previous build that my mouse would suddenly stop and not move on my screen I could still command+tab through windows but my mouse would stay stuck for about ten minutes, so far I have not experienced the same problem with this build.

I've heard that since the update Safari has been crashing frequently. Of course it's beta, but that can't be a good sign this late
Hehe, and it wasn't even called "Mac OS" back then!
Anyway, excuse me while I go look at my Stylewriter II that I've lovingly preserved . . .
Still have 2 LaserWriter IIs, a Quadra 650, 950 with AV input & output with Radius cards for movie editing, and 13" & 17" Apple CRT AV Monitors. System 7 - 7.5 in the '90s was awesome - even MS Word 5.1 rocked back then, and was better then than it is today. With a 4800 baud modem, and a dedicated phone line, the sky was the limit - there was nothing this setup could not do - great times, indeed!
You could "insert proprietary file format here" and ask the same question. I like having support for as much as possible.
The one that I replied to, or the ones I talked about? none of them are real, all just concepts...what theme is this? i want this theme
Please tell me thats a joke....At least I'm moralistic and altruistic enough to drop by the post office each day to deposit .44 for each and every e-mail I send out online. The nerve of these relentless scofflaws, blatantly bypassing and stealing the profits rightfully due to the USPS!
