The new version of the operating system of Apple machines is now available in stores. In this version there are no major developments in the operation of applications or the interface but the efforts have focused on improving system performance dramatically.

A new version of QuickTime, an entirely rewritten in Cocoa Finder or compatibility with Microsoft Exchange servers are some of the novelty of this new version. As a counterpoint to the new features included support for PowerPC computers disappears, leaving the transition to Intel is complete.

Price is one of the things that has surprised users at this time only have to pay € 29 to upgrade to the new version.

    2. With 29 € also be achieved by upgrading from 10.4 Tiger, but I've seen complaints like Microsoft does not charge for ServicePack and the dissatisfied say that Snow Leopard on Mac OS X 10.5 Did you should consider a minor update?

    3. When I get my hands will do a little editing to show you that I think. However, according to faq-mac.com, performance tests are still quite favorable for the new system. Given that improvements are on that side appears to be a success the new system.

    Normal so far is that in every version Apple make several update packages where faults are corrected and added updates. This could be the equivalent of Microsoft service packs. You've done and 7 updates Leopard and typically make two or three more before they leave to make updates. Should we then consider a new OS Snow Leopard? I think so, because there are significant changes internally. It is true that these changes are not as "visible" to the user as that between Tiger and Leopard but there are. It is also true that the upgrade from Tiger to Leopard cost € 129 if I remember correctly, so download it to 29 € seems reasonable.

    In short, in my opinion, I think a price right for the times because Microsoft is about to get your Windows 7 and it seems that this time is strong. Apple should try to be as competitive as possible.
