Snow Leopard resume
now after some of us have used it for some time what do you think?
(objective statements please if possible )

as for me i don't see why i should change until enough apps support grandcentral and/or opencl.

Well, Snow Leopard added support for my wireless (Atheros AR9280), and seemingly native support for my Realtek R8169 ethernet so I will be using it from where it is now in alpha on into the future.

That said, I am a bit biased towards using it in the future. Cheers. lol

Snow Leopard is considerably faster with regards to rendering web pages in Safari. With the amount of browsing I do I'd like to make it my primary system, how-ever there are still some random stability issues you may encounter with it.

It's close to prime time but not quite there yet.

you might compare that to a current webkit build on 10.5.x.
it might not be because of 10.6 ...

Where could I get a copy of that build? Is it publicly available?

Just FYI my main reason for using Snow Leopard is so I can have a viable alternative to Entourage for connecting to my Exchange environment. (Although when the WebDav version of Entourage is released this fall it should provide a far better experience on most fronts).

btw what i would really like to see as a new feature is the ability to at least read multisession dvds.
i wanted that in 10.5 already but ... nope.
