What part of it looks ugly?

Im not sure i dig the way the parent folder is skewed on the corner of the current folder. I dont know how i would have done it myself, but im just not fond of apple's choice. At least the functionality is there, and thats what counts.

Me too. But I'm sure glad I would never want to have this functionality on my PPC systems. 🙄

They already did, it is in current seed for Service menu, it is called Service Management I believe in it's own perference pane.

There is keyboard shortcut management already in there, but not fully working yet.

Ok, now is the first time I've gotten p*ssed that they are dropping ppc support. well I guess 6 yrs is enough to ask from the old eMac, but it still runs like a champ and I tell ya what, I won't be able to look her in the eyes when I take her out back...

One other thing - Switch graphic cards w/o logging out

I've got a new MacBook Pro and would love to be able to switch between the Better Performance and Better Battery settings without having to log out and back in to switch the graphics cards being used.🙂

Right on both parts. Very nice features indeed, and sad that it wasn't in Leopard to begin with. I know I need to upgrade my G5 in about a year and a half, but wouldn't have been nice to have a photo/video server with Snow Leopard?

delete my post please

Why did you bump is old thread just to say delete my post?

 

[METOO999]

I thought it was a new thread based on the front page news and then looked at the dates, so I changed it to "please delete." 🙂

Well, for those clamoring for new tweaks, here's another one:

Based on this image, you can now finally resize the item icons in regular finder windows (not just search results):

See lower right corner.

Resize the icons to 512 and then have a close look at the Textedit app 😉

Love the new tweaks and features of Snow Leopard. Hope it arrives before the weekend - but it probably won't.
