So\u00a0 being the Mac fanboy I am, my Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard) family pack arrived yesterday morning. Amusingly the courier delivered to my sisters work about an hour later and said to her “I know what you’ve got for Christmas, its one of them new iPods I’ve been delivering all day.”. My sister put him straight; that there isn’t a new iPod, its a new operating system. Apparently TNT had loads to deliver\u00a0 on Friday, which is nice.<\/p>\n
Being busy with work during Friday day I didn’t get round to installing (onto an external drive on my MacBook) until about midnight – surely the best time of day to upgrade an OS, no? Unsurprisingly it installed fine, it booted fine, it worked fine. So this morning I swapped the internal and external drives over, which is something I’ve been meaning to do for a while as I was low on free space. Lovely then, all sorted.<\/p>\n
Sadly though, in a bit, later today, I’ll be swapping the hard disks back over and going back to Tiger. This isn’t because Spaces isn’t as good as VirtuDesktops, of because the Finder isn’t all jazzy or because of anything like that, no, it is because the Juniper SSL VPN software I need for work at the moment plum doesn’t work on Leopard.\u00a0 Juniper acknowledge the issue and say it will be fixed, in Q2 2008. Suck.<\/p>\n
Its a shame, 10.5 seems nice (well, TBH it seems like Tiger with the addons I used added in.).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
