I\u2019ve been using the betas on my home desktop since WWDC. Most things work, and I occasionally notice something that\u2019s different. If you replaced Snow Leopard with Leopard, I probably wouldn\u2019t notice for at least a day. (Replace Leopard with Tiger and I\u2019d notice within seconds.)<\/p>\n

When I use my laptop or my work desktop, both still running Leopard, I don\u2019t miss any Snow Leopard features.<\/p>\n

I preordered<\/a> it from Amazon, but I probably won\u2019t get it until next week, even though everyone else can get it on Friday. This doesn\u2019t bother me at all, and I\u2019m not going to put any effort into getting it sooner.<\/p>\n

Some minor things are broken with certain applications, and I\u2019ve hit a few minor bugs with the OS. Therefore, I don\u2019t plan to upgrade my work computer or laptop for a little while, possibly until 10.6.1 or until application support is a bit better.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re likely to see software that takes advantage of new Snow Leopard APIs in the next few years. But there\u2019s no reason to rush the upgrade and be among the first to hit compatibility problems. Day-to-day use is almost unchanged from Leopard. That\u2019s a good thing, but it won\u2019t make for a flashy release.<\/p>\n

Upgrade when convenient. No rush.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
