It's the 3rd already and I have only just changed. I knew something was amiss.

Something new for me - a reminder of home.

Keeping my install of 10.6.8 Snow Leopard clean and uncut. I altered the QuickTime icon and dock layout to perfectly match the developer preview from WWDC 2009.

The finder "shelves" I made custom using only Apple assets like the wood from iBooks, the Dock made opaque, and the gradient fade from Keynote.

You just refuse to “move on”, huh? :)

Says the one swiping 10.4's Tiger background :p

Honestly I just don't have a good reason to... it's not like I'm Amish, I've had machines running everything up to High Sierra but I was so completely disgusted with both the looks and what the update did to my 2012 iMac (RIP) I decided to just go back to the last OS I truly felt at peace with.

Except for the iTunes 8 store not working and some compatibility issues with games I've got the machine running tip-top with Steam, Adobe CS5, and Final Cut X.

"Oh you can search far and wide,
You can drink the whole town dry,
But you'll never find a beer so brown,

Oh you'll never find a beer so brown,

As the one we drink in our hometown,
As the one we drink in our hometown.
You can drink your fancy ales,
You can drink them by the flagon,
But the only brew for the brave and true...
..Comes from the Green Dragon!!"

I recently bought a 17" 2007 Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, and I'm triple booting the original Tiger install, Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion on a 500GB drive. I'll test Snow Leopard for a week as my main and only OS, I'm pretty sure I can use it as my daily driver :D
