yea right... really necessary to have yet another topic about that? ;)

pretty much sucks to always look at 2 topics. ;)

plus after all the years and posts and pages i think the original leopard-topic deserves to be the official one, even after the release. ;)

i don't know if this has been discussed, but i am not about to comb through 70 pages to find it... that's just crazy.

i was wondering if it's fine (as in performance and problems) to just do an upgrade instead of fresh install. if used as an upgrade, what are the downside to it?

rather curious because i would rather not deal with the whole backing up hdd, etc to update the OS.

Firstly. BACKUP. If you don't and the upgrade gets botched you might be left with an unbootable system. Once backed up. Do an Archive and Install OR make a bootable backup to an external drive. Install Leopard on your internal drive erasing it in the process then when in Leopard using the Migration Assistant to transfer over your information from your backup.

Anyone here who has a Mac that didn't make the Minimum specifications? (Curious if we still have any < 800MHz G4 or < 512MB RAM users)

I have an 800MHz G4 iBook, It's in my moms possession now. Even if the installer gets modified to allow installing on less than 866MHz machines, 10.4.11 will be it's last OS.

Do the Adobe CS3 apps work with Leopard?

They work but are known to have some problems. PM me reminding me and I'll test them for you, probably on the 26th unless I get it later.

I forget... Did Adobe say they would patch it or did they say we'll fix it in CS4?

I'm looking forward to Think Secret's image gallery. Should clear up a few of my questions, the biggest one being the final fate of Leopard scroll bars.

I'd have to agree with that comment. Apple's current shots still show the Finder with the Aqua scrollbars, which doesn't exactly bode well....but we'll see I guess.

a friend has an old ibook g4 that i am going to put it on, i wanna see how it runs on that. had 512 ram too

Same here through MSDNAA. (though it's not limited to CS majors, just students taking a CS course)

Sad thing is, I don't dare touch either of the software. :x

yeah we get access to that at school. It's great what you get for free :)

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.
