Cara Veteran Posted June 26, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2003 Just a hint guys, if you have your CD's from WWDC and are afraid to install them... The buzz internal is that the DR is about 99% as stable as Retail Jaguar. ;) However, as with ALL (including retail) OS's, if it does bomb your machine it's not their fault (nor mine. ;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristotle-dude Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 It might be stable but it has some unimplemented features though right? Like preferences for some things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cara Veteran Posted June 26, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2003 All preferences you are use to in Jaguar are (should be) implemented, though they may not be converted over to the new look/feel. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the evn show Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 If ever there was a way for us snoby Mac users to make humble PC user hate us it would be to only post highly compressed images of our desktops. No high res pictures, no details, no roll overs, "theme this" a--holes ;) I'm going to go through and start writting up a review/screenshot fest. I'll try and show most of the changes.

Cara Veteran Posted June 26, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2003 Keep in mind guys Apple is VERY interested in squishing Windows themes using the new version 3 Aqua images, to my knowledge they've already sent one Cease and Desist letter for one Panther skin and are watching for any others, and they do have eyes in the most unlikely of places. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kairon Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 nice OS, i installed it in my iMac and am amazed at it! Finder is faster then before, with a better interface, and the labels feature is amazing!I don't know why they ever took that feature out of the OS, but I'm glad its back. The redesigned ASP is nice too. My only gripe is that my Netgear MA101 wireless router can't work on 10.3 yet, since Belkin didn't release 10.3 drivers for their products (i use hacked belkins to work with my netgear). Ah well, back to 10.2, when 10.3 comes out I'm doing the full PC -> MAC switch! (Thats how much I love panther already) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moRU Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Is monitor spanning still supported in Panther? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Is monitor spanning still supported in Panther? are you talking about on the iBook when plugging into an external monitor? I am sure it is, and if not, there are ways to get it there. It is built with open firmware meaning you just have to hack it and you are set.

cerbero Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 I installed Panther on a second partition yesterday, and I'm impressed. Very nice new features, and it's Snappier?. [rant] However, I don't like the new Finder. It's fast and all, but the GUI is horrible. First of all, I loathe brushed metal. Why do Apple insist on making every single one of their apps brushed metal? Now, that can be remedied, but the iTunes-like bar on the left is pretty stupid to me.. I'd rather have those "shortcuts" at the top of the Window, in the toolbar (like we have it now). Third, the desktop selections look dumb. Darker background around the icons and a blue label?? I really hope they'll give it some more thought and work before the final version is shipped. If not, I hope we can hack the crap out of the Finder to make it look acceptabl:):) [/rant] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
