Mac OS X Snow Leopard Discussion


Recommended Posts

Notice that on this new Activity Monitor, the Aqua-style menu for "All Processes" has been replaced.

It's been like that since the first leaked build. I'm really hoping they'll replace the remaining Aqua elements as well. The icon slider looks like crap in the Finder window.

I know, but I wasn't sure everyone noticed. It's a good sign, though. It's time to phase out Aqua.

for those who have tried the build. Can you update from Leopard to Snow Leopard in beta or fresh install only ?

Also can you update from one beta build to another ?

Thx

I tried leapard last year only to install tiger again after I realized it was buggy as hell. Don't think il be trying this one, just have it on pre order instead.

Wow... Being able to read/write to NTFS drives would be really useful. Would allow for full interaction with other PCs on the home network.

You don't need to be able to read/write NTFS to interact with network connected computers.

True, but I'd be able to actually use external hard drives on Windows-based computers on the network.

I know this is offtopic, But how come you can write to shared (ntfs) but not directly?

I think it's because the computer sharing that NTFS drive technically does the writing ;)

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Here's hoping Apple won't pull it out at the last minute like they did with Leopard.

Something I still miss from the Leopard beta's was the ability to create a Stack by dropping a group of files, folders or applications onto the Dock. That way an "Applications" Stack would actually sit in the applications section of the Dock and without the need to create or use a physical folder.

Awesome. That is certainly something I of could used in Leopard.

It's nice eye candy, but not something I'm going to use. For me the list view for Stacks is perfect.
