Who got Leopard?

Went early expecting a line but there was probably 5 people waiting outside.
They let us in the store (it closes at 4:30 normally) and let us grab a copy but not buy it until 6 and then at 6 I paid and left.
I'm digging it all the way so far.

Has anyone tried Leopard on a PowerPC G4 yet?

I'm wondering how well my 1.42GHz G4 iBook with 1GB of RAM will handle the extra features and eye candy.

We had a launch party at CompUSA since we don't have an Apple Store (yet). About 70 people were there at 6:00. :D

Works all-right on my 1Ghz iBook G4. Not all of the eye candy works though. The transparent menu-bar doesn't work, but otherwise the machine seems to run fine.

I bought it last night. Got the t-shirt. Installed it on 3 of the 4 eligible Macs in my house with no problems.

Probably a stupid question but is that the family pack or just the normal?

Another thing is if you buy a mac at the store with the leopard drop in disc can you use it on more than one computer?

I'm not 100% certain, but I think that it may be specific to the model as far as drivers and such go, but Apple doesn't have product activation, so I don't see why not.

I bought the family pack but the single would have worked the same. There are no licenses or serial numbers to enter so the disc is never going to matter. The over the counter version of 10.5 will work on all eligible Macs. The machine specific discs come with the individual machines.

I bought my copy today and it runs nicely on my MacBook with 2GB of memory. :) Loving the new unified interface and all of the subtle touches :)

I will be waiting a few months for the kinks, but I'm pretty excited to experience it.

Surprisingly there really don't seem to be any. Some folks don't like the fact that any folder put in the dock becomes a stack but otherwise I've not seen much of a problem.

To be honest, I've never even used Front Row...

Oh, and for those of you who don't like the 3D Dock, open the Terminal and type this:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock

change YES to NO to restore the 3D dock.

I've got it, and some thoughts:
On the whole, I like it.
Time machine is INSANELY good. I have it hooked up to a 500 gb external and am LOVING it. Seriosuly, the best new feature
Spotlight is even faster than before
Front Row is faster and better
Stacks... Don't work in practice. Good idea, but just are more annoying than they're worth.
Also, they KILL being able to quickly see what folders are what in the dock. If you have a music, photo, video, and apps folder in your dock, they are now stacks. This is very anoying.

The unified look is good
Repair permissions now takes about 20 minutes, vs 3.
I changed my dock to the 'dark dock,' looks way better.
on the whole, a good upgrade.

I have my apps folder as a stack and that basically makes stacks amazing for me.
This way I can have all my apps on my dock without it being ridiculously long.
True, but for me, Spotlight is WAYYYY faster than any stack.

I'm undecided about the 3D dock effect. The loss of the black triangle from previous versions is a shame - the small blue blob is hard to see. I had read that moving the dock to the left or right also disables the 3D effect. Wonder if there will be an option to turn off this in future updates?

Meanwhile I may use that 'hack'...

If you mean turning off the switch to 2D when moving the dock to the side, it just doesn't make any sense physically. It's 3D and is a table. When you put a table on its side, it just dumps whatever is on top, so putting a dock on the side would have weird gravity issues. Of course, nothing says that the computer has to make sense physically, but I think we would just see it and think there was something wrong with it.

So do you want to change the way it appears on the side, and make it like the current look, or do you want to change the current look to one with an easier-to-see indicator?

Got you. It took a while, but I got you. Daylight savings is messing with my head. :D
