OSX Leopard 26th October (1 Viewer)

that just with the imacs or is it the macbook / pro too?

Just the Aluminium iBooks. Macbook Pro's apparently work fine.

 

[Wilbert]

that's just typical fucking microso.....

oh.

To be fair it is the only problem I've ever had with a mac that I'd describe as serious.

It's cold comfort at the moment, though.

One thing PC users can do that Mac users can't:

So hereself has decided today to possibly get a macbook, I'm presuming if she buys one from the apple store online it should come with leopard installed? But if she buys one in the shops it will have the old OS??

 

[nofriendo]

depends on when the shops got their stock really dude! you can always ask in the shop to be sure

 

[mamul]

i ordered mine last friday when leopard was released. it came with tiger installed and leopard on disc.

 

[avernus]

mine is on the way!

 

[Anthony]

order from apple online, should be installed by now no?

 

[Wilbert]

Posting this with Leopard installed.

Very nice but not earth-shattering. If a few of us in work hadn't chipped in to buy this, I may not have bothered.

To those of you with a nice new shiny aluminium and glass iMac, there may be a problem if you install it.

About two months ago, Apple release update 1.1 for the new Alu iMac and it screwed up the video drivers on a lot of machines causing them to crash as soon as the drivers had to do anything as simple as magnifying the dock and makes your computer unusable.

I had this problem and did an Archive and Install to get back to the earlier version.

Problem now is that 1.1 is built into Leopard and it still fucks up your machine.

I had to dig out the Powerbook to write this.

Apparently a fix is on the way but nobody is sure when.

Fix finally arrived last night and all seems well.

MBP was supposed to arrive today. It didn't. Bullshit.

I suggest a rampage of some sort.



You like rampages, Avernus.

 

[avernus]

arrived this evening. had to install Leopard. delighted.

 

[nofriendo]

so no rampage ?

 

[avernus]

doesn't look like it - I even bought 3 yr apple care, so if something goes wrong I probably won't need to rampage then either. drag.

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

How much was the applecare?

 

[the departed]

How much was the applecare?

did you get an ipod boss?

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

Yeah. And a macbook.

 

[avernus]

How much was the applecare?

300 quid. I got a nano too. delicious.

so i installed it... and it slows down my internet connection and causes my Airport Extreme network to drop out every 3 mins.

fuck you leopard, i am re-installing Tiger 10.4 because this is so unreliable its ridiculous.

sure it looks pretty but my apple wireless keeps disappearing.

load of cock.
