Not just yet for me. I'll have to justify that one with the 'bank manager' first.

Hmmm, Christmas is approacing.......:hhhmmm

 

haha know what you mean
but theres some cool stuff with 10.5, Time Machine, iSCSI initiator, some cool new desktop features, enhancements to existing apps, as well as Spaces (Virtual Desktops, ala Linux), Full Boot camp, etc

deffo worth the money

on a side note
Kingston are telling me that my Macbook will support 4GB now they have released the 2GB SODIMMS, even though the apple site says 2GB, so I may be getting a phat upgrade to 4GB ram

 

I HAVE IT!
muhahahah

omg I've become a fanboy

 

I just can't 'justify' upgrading yet.

 

Waited? nah i was on a client site till 7ish and i was 10 minutes down the road from the Kingston store, popped in on the way home, no queues by then nothing



Justify? I don't need to justify things

 

How is it? Worth upgrading? Does it still ship with Apache?

Also, which MacBook are you using? Quite fancy 4GB in my Black 2GHz if possible..

 

I don't have a mac, but the demo looks awesome

 

Drat, another one bites the dust.

 

That's fanboi, with an i. And that includes a pretty white case with as few buttons as possible, since you're a Mac fanboi.

 

Oh dear even apple can get it wrong

bit it would correctly be termed iFanBoy

 

Yet again that's exactly the crap MS get that's undeserved

It's a conflict with THIRD PARTY software!! Whilst every effort is taken to minimize these conflicts with big name third parties, they will always exist

one of the core reasons for windows systems crashing is crap drivers (vendor) or a misbehaving application

Apple/MS/whatever can't be expected to write something that is guaranteed to work with every bit of software ever written for it

I AM however generally amused that these things don't present themselves more prevalently in beta tests
perhaps because beta tests are still so restrictive and have such limited participation (especially Apple betas), the same happened with Vistas release (which had hundreds of thousands of beta testers)

Go figure!

 

Ah, you are quite correct, iFanboy.

 

But I was in London anyway ... and it would have been silly not to pop round and see how long the queue was.

Admittedly I was around the 500 mark at 5.30 and I had mine in my hand (with free t-shirts) and out of the store looking for a bus by 6.20 ... and that was including being nabbed by a film crew for a new tech channel on iTunes too.

Even my wife didn't mind the waiting around.

 

A little bit late, but now the firewall has been affected by the new software:
