the Leopard needs tamed
Me:I’m having serious second thoughts about Leopard. After updating iTunes and Quicktime yesterday, I’ve had three separate apps go tits-up.
Luke: really?
Me: yeah, really. It feels more like a fucking windows machine now.
I’ve had three separate applications hang since applying the iTunes and Quicktime updates yesterday plus a kernel panic last night. I’ve rebooted twice since, to flush any problems, to no avail.
I’m not sure if Leopard was rushed, or if it wasn’t well tested, or if I’m an isolated case. I certainly didn’t have this problem going to Tiger.
However, it just occurred to me that I’ve maintained the same basic build since friggin’ Cheetah, the first iteration of OS X. We’re now five OS versions beyond Cheetah. Now THAT is impressive. Try that on a Windows machine.
I guess its time to plan for a full rebuild.
