I am in the same boat. I have a Giant Color Laser Printer w/ a Fiery Color-pass rip. The lease is up in Dec. but it is only 5 years old. Unfortunately canon used appletalk to integrate the mac support. NO ONE TOLD ME APPLE REMOVED APPLETALK IN SL. Lame!!! At any rate, i am trying a work around using an imac running tiger, but the main issue is that even if it could see the printer, somehow SL wrecked the PPD. "Installed incorrectly" Hopefully this fixes this issue.
Got a tip for us?

And that is BS too. ME is the end of the line for the DOS-based line. XP is a follow up to 2000, since it uses the Windows NT codebase.
Because this is the way it has been for 25+ years? Seriously, this is not uncommon, even for Apple. Happened in the classic Mac OS days, happened and happens in the Windows world. It's simply a part of what progress is.
Airport Problems
I bought my 13" MacBook Pro less than a week ago. It came with a Snow Leopard drop in disc. I did a clean install and didn't really have much time playing with 10.5.x.
I've been experiencing Airport WiFi drops here and there. I've tried changing my router's SSID name from hidden, channel, and other settings. Does anyone know if this has anything to do with Snow Leopard or the MacBook Pro 13" in general? All other WiFi enabled computers/phones/ipods in the house don't seem to have a problem.

The Company issued me a Sierra Wireless USB 598 modem (Sprint) and I haven't had any issues with SL since 10A380. Odd.
What version of watcher are you running? Yours looks way newer than mine but I cant seem to find any updates. Im at 2.1.0
Of course, I have crappy AT&T
Here's hoping for full OpenGL 3.0 support, expanded GPUs with official H.264 acceleration support, and expanded 64-bit kernel support for 9400M based MacBooks and Mac Minis. The latter should be fairly easy given the commonality between 9400M MacBooks and Mac Minis and supported 9400M iMacs. Official H.264 acceleration support for the nVidia 8000, 9000, GT100 and GTX285 series should also be fairly simple given existing 9400M support. And of course even ATI X1000 and nVidia 7000 series are capable of partial H.264 acceleration in hardware as is the case in Windows.
I wonder if 10.5.9 along with a final security update for Tiger will be released alongside 10.6.1? That was the case with 10.4.11 and the final security update for Panther shipping alongside 10.5.1.
EDIT: It'd be great to get 32-bit Java 1.5 on Snow Leopard too since there have been reported compatibility problems with Java 1.6 which is the only version available in Snow Leopard. Adding support should be fairly simple too, seeing that people have already found workarounds to install Leopard's Java 1.5 on Snow Leopard.

Download the newest Control Center.. go into the folder.. view the package contents, go into resources.. install via Logitech Control Center.mpkg
I have the same issue but I'l wait, I'll just use the basic mouse preferences to get by
Whenever I come here to catch up on things I see your posts -- why are you here? Its like a guy who claims he doesn't care about his ex-girlfriend standing outside of her house telling other guys how horrible she is... Why doesn't he just move on if he really doesn't have any feelings for her. When people spend so much time on message boards blasting a brand or product, I always wonder whether they're driven by (1) love of a competing product, or, (2) "hatred" of the product they're insulting. I find most people that have this ardent hatred for Macs have other deep seated emotional problems. How about you -- do you have emotional problems?
Doubt that extremely. First of all, it will be two or three weeks yet before 10.6.1 is released. Still pretty quick because they're aiming to knock off the most obvious bugs first. The second update will gather up a lot of little issues; expect that one around the end of the year.
How can they NOT fix the stupid Expose glitch, I know this is affecting alot of users. What gives Apple?

If you drag a second PDF file into the sidebar, it will combine the two if you bring the icon close enough to the thumbnails of the first PDF file. Otherwise, it will simply display the two files together while keeping them separate. Just keep an eye out for the outline box.
Does anyone know a workaround for the Logitech mouse, that I can put expose or spaces on the additional buttons of the mouse??
Logitech Control Center run not anymore on Snow Leopard!! And who knows when the update from Logitech arrives!
Thank you!

Here's another glitch. For some reason, Safari will not remain in my Dock unless open. The Dock also won't allow the Safari icon to be rearranged.
It's driving me insane. And I clean installed on a MacBook Core 2 Duo (Late 2007).

Did you migrate your user over in that clean install using Migration Assistant? What was it migrated off of if so?
With Safari closed navigate to the HD>Applications folder and drag the safari app to the dock.
From what I saw in your screen capture you didn't have Safari in the dock to begin with.
Try repairing permissions too.

Of course, I have crappy AT&T
