I retired from personal blogging in July 2008.
But you can find me over at http://blog.xero.com.
Second Leopard install (skipping the DVD check) was a lot faster. You do a few things at the start and then just leave it for an hour and it’s done. Leopard is not like XP -> Vista. It’s an evolution. The UI has a few more bells and whistles. I was worried that Leopard might jump the shark and get intrusive. It still just ‘gets out of the away’ and you think more about the applications than the Operating System. With a 24″ Monitor I’m not busting to use Spaces yet.
Safari is faaaast. Xero flies with Safari 3. We’ve been testing it for our last few releases and should be fully supported in our next release. The fastest bank rec in town just got faster!

So I’ve flipped back to Safari as my main browser.
Time Machine setup was easy. That’s chugging away now.
The new Finder looks nicer. Downloads in the Dock, using Stacks tidies things up.Quick Look rocks. Hit space when you are on a file. That is a time saver.
Still no full screen maximize button. I wish someone would develop that. Must be possible to add that to all Windows.
Verdict. A worthwhile, non scary, incremental upgrade. Great for power users. Like it.

yeah - Xero doesn’t work for me at all even though Konq is just Safari in a different suit
Well yeah, we read the Browser info and only allow through the ones we have tested.
Strangely enough, firefox is a hell of a lot faster too.
