Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: say good bye to final cut Comment: if you don't have a reason beyond "it's new" to upgrade my advice is "for the love of God - DON'T". Customer Rating: Summary: Great OS, Great Price Comment: The price for this from Amazon was phenomenal. The operating system, as we have come to expect from Apple, is top notch. Customer Rating: Summary: Still to soon Comment: I write this on August 21st 2008. If you have not upgraded yet. Please, wait it is still too early. Many companies still have not upgraded drivers to printers, scanners etc., Also many programs need to be updated which is fine if the company has anticipated leopard. Many Indy companies have not though. While Time Machine and Spaces are fantastic features. Being bleeding edge is not worth the loss in productivity you will have upgrading software. Customer Rating: Summary: almost great Comment: A really good upgrade. I wish it took up a little less hard drives space though. Customer Rating: Summary: No problems, easy installation. Comment: This is a fine product. I had no trouble upgrading several different kinds of Macs. This is convenient and worth the price. In particular, I like the simple method of registering the OS without keeping up with installation codes or special media. More Reviews
