My quick Leopard review

Posted: Oct 30, 2007

Now that I’ve had a few days to play with it, I’d have to go with 80% completely awesome versus 20% what the fuck were they thinking?

Time Machine – awesome idea (I’ll like it better if I can ever get it to back up more than 14k), Quick Look – awesome, Spaces – awesome, new iChat – awesome.

But Finder, the Dock and the shitty new folder icons—you’re totally in the 20% figure. I thought the idea was that when you upgraded something you were supposed to make it better, not suck way harder than it already did? Seriously, just take the Dock out back and shoot it already willya?

One the whole it’s gonna be worth the upgrade, but mostly because of the stuff people like Panic and Wil Shipley will do with the new developer goodies, I reckon.

Still, could have been worse (hello Vista).
